I am, therefore God is?
There are lots of people who are willing to accept that everything in this universe is "governed" by the laws of physics and that it all began on a very small and simple scale. "But," they say, "I won't accept it that something comes from nothing; in the end there must have been a creator."
My problem with this argument is that it says: because the universe exists, in fact because anything at all exists, there must be a creator. It seems easier to just accept that maybe something can come from nothing, rather than postulate a creator that conveniently defies physics and causality.
By the way, does the Big Bang theory really say that something came from nothing? Doesn't it say that everything came from a singularity?
