Does philosophy favor God exists, or it does not.

Philosophy is a human discipline investigating everything on the basis of reason and intelligence, investigating with focus on the ultimate grounds of existence or reality.

First, it investigages the who, what, when, where, why and how of an event or a fact or a phenomenon or a belief or even what is certainty as distinct from and opposed to doubt.

My on finding is that philosophy favors the existence of God, becaise ultimately God is the explanation for everything, period.

You mention "creation by evolution."

Evolution is a process, and process implicates a processor, and on and on and on . . . until ultimately finally the series of processors lands on the self-existent processor which is God, the permanent self-existent spirit creator and operator of man and the universe and everything transient in nature.

If you will not accept God, what is your alternative to God?

The question arises, how to "explain the mechanism whereby a disembodied intelligence can affect material reality."

By the cosmic microwave background radiation enacted by God, scientists just have to go beyond, which they prefer to not go to.

@yrger Before this forum was set up it was nothing and when it will be shut down one day it will be nothing again. Same goes for human life but I don't think we were created by a God rather we came into being by adaption to environment and many other variables. Believing in a creator is to simplify reality.
I made the destinction between creation through a direct action and creation by evolution as in complex interactions leading to something different or new.[/quote]
