Best evidence for Creation

ICANT,You may want to continue reading your Hawkings paper a bit more than just the first line.Heres a quote from it

quote:

---

At a singularity, all the laws of physics would have broken down. This means that the state of the universe, after the Big Bang, will not depend on anything that may have happened before, because the deterministic laws that govern the universe will break down in the Big Bang.

---

If the laws of physics break down, then there is no way of knowing for sure when or how a beginning occured.Here he further explains what is meant,

quote:

---

Since events before the Big Bang have no observational consequences, one may as well cut them out of the theory, and say that time began at the Big Bang.

---

So its not that 'time began at the Big Bang', what he is saying is that we might as well say that time began at the Big Bang since events prior have no observable consequence.Here again he repets that,

quote:

---

Although the laws of science seemed to predict the universe had a beginning, they also seemed to predict that they could not determine how the universe would have begun.

---

UNDETERMINED BEGINNING...I think thats a pretty clear statement.However, I would say that String Theory may be closing this gap.

ICANT reply, I think you are jumping the gun, it seems to predict that the beginniing, if there was one, is currently undetermined.Also note that the Laws of science breakdown at the singularity making the 'beginning' currently unknowable. Therefore to boldly state that there is a beginning is a leap of faith. ...your link wasn't to Son Goku's explanation.But i'll take your word that 1,160,400,000,000,000 degrees, is the actual number.So what, Son Goku is refering to the Universe at a particular time after T=O, how is that a problem for String or M-theory? I don't see how a particular temperature creates a problem for String theory. Could you explain...

Exactly, so why would you presume it has an origin?Why would you presume it has a creator?Why would you presume to know who the creator is?

I don't think you get to evade it that easily. That may be your opinion on the matter but, it certainly isn't evidence for simple requiring no creator. If God created our universe, then he did so by creating those simple forces that were present at the moment of the BB, and therefore God would also be responsable for creating something simple.If God is the creator, He created the most complex, AND the most simple, therefore even the most simplest of things that exist in our universe would require a creator. If God is, as you say simple, He too requires a creator that created the simple God.
