Why is it that people have no difficulty imagining an eternally existing universe yet so many have trouble imagining an eternally existing God?
I can only speak for myself. For me, it's easy. I don't believe in an eternally existing universe (well, not the universe we know).
There's absolutely no empirical verifiable evidence for the existence of Spooks today. None. Zada. Yet, there's lots and lots of empirical, verifiable evidence that nature exists today and existed billions of years ago, too.
Still not even one piece of empirical, verifiable evidence for the existence of Spooks. Not today. Not yesterday. Not 6000 years ago. Not billions of years ago. Yet, we do have empirical, verifiable evidence that nature existed for all those billions of years.
The clincher for me is all those "arguments" is lots of religious people try about what their favourite Spooks did billions of years ago. Hey, people, those 'arguments" don't provide any empirical, verifiable evidence that those Spooks still exist today.
To me those 'arguments' from what happened billions of years ago are not worth much in determining the existence of Spooks today.
