Hi atheists, you allege that although the physical universe has a beginning, that does not implicate that some entity created it.
So, it just popped into existence from nothingness?
That is absurd.
What about this idea from Stephen Hawking:
"Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist."
But take notice the man conveniently neglects to ask from where the law of gravity originates - also from nothingness?
For his enlightenment, if there is a law, there is a law maker.
And for his further enlightenment from simple intelligence, there has always been existence that is permanent and self-existent.
Hi atheists, you see, there is ultimately the choice between the platform of existence or the platform of non-existence i.e. nothingness, to start any conversation among us humans.
As we are all intelligent, we cannot but choose the platform of existence, instead of the platform of nothingness i.e. non-existence.
If you stubbornly insist that nothingness is not really nothingness but somethingness, in which case you are not talking about nothingness - unless you have lost your mind.
Nothingness is never ever going to change itself from nothingness to somethingness, even though atheists wait and wait and wait . . . billions and billions and billions of years.
The fact and the truth is all existence is god, period.
All things not god came from god.
God is the theory of everything.
God exists, that explains everything that has a beginning.
