Hi DocSavage, I tell you time and again that there is the ultimate reality and that is God, the permanent self-existent creator and operator of everything that is not God Himself.
I ask you, DocSavage, why is there something instead of nothing?
Suggested answer for you from Yrger: Because there is no such thing as nothingness, the reality is that there is the default status which is the existence of God, the permanent self-existent creator and operator of everything that is not God Himself.
You will ask me now, why does not God create a better world for mankind, my answer:
God decides to not produce a better world for mankind, but He wills that mankind by His (from God) gifts of reason and intelligence will work together to render the world given by God to mankind, will become better and better and better - no more wars and anger and hatred and all kinds of wickedness, that mankind is prone to by mankind's abuse of free will.

Where and how did god ultimately come from ? He is permanent and self-existent.
If god used radioactive material to make the universe, why didn’t he use it to make people too. God chooses what and how and why to do what He does, if you be God, then you go and do a better job, otherwise be rich in wisdom with humility - you are DocSavage not God
You said the background cosmic radiation implies god. If it’s not there, then god didn’t do it, because god is not there. Wrong logic owing to wrong premise, the correct premise is that God is permanent and self-existent etc etc etc etc . . .
Make up your mind ( what there is of it ) Now you are getting childish with ad hominems.

Theist, like you tend to ignore the impossible when it’s inconvenient.
He is permanent and self-existent
Which is the same thing you claim is impossible. If it’s impossible for us it’s impossible for god. Or if it’s possible for god, then the rest of the universe can do it. No reason it can’t Theist, like you tend to ignore the impossible when it’s inconvenient.
