God is still active
I wanted to respond to you Brit in the "flaws of ID" thread, but it would have been deemed as off topic. Your message, Message 249 in which you say:
​
I just can't get over how you guys seem to miss the inherent beauty of a universe that does not require your imaginary designer, which is of course, the universe we live in.
​
The newest APOD image shows that god is still actively creating new things in our universe because he failed with us. Just take a look for yourself and see that it MUST be god creating new planetary systems.

Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people

Re: It is subjective
Do you not find it ironic that the one belief that you are claiming to be totally useless in this thread (the belief in the christian God) is the very one that enabled scientific inquiry to start.
​
This fact alone makes your argument moot, because without this belief in ''Mr. Magicstuff in the Sky'' who knows if science would ever have found a favorable ground to germ and grow.
​
I think science owes religion a nice ass whippin' for holding it down for so long. Remember the Dark Ages? Religion has done more to unravel and stifle scientific thought than anything.

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Re: Why doesn't God try harder? The believers have a nonsense answer for this
I've been accused of being ignorant (by my semi-creationist girlfriend and her brother) for questioning the bible. Har-Har.
