A Question for Religious People

Post #1

Post by C-Nub »

I got this from a book.

Oh, and for the atheists out there, I'm one of you, don't post that there is no God. Just sit on your hands and be good for a while.

Please?

Anyways, here's the question. It might be better suited for the philosophy area, but once again, I'm an internet Jedi, and moderators will leave this thread alone.

Would you rather continue more or less as you are, believing in God and telling people that you know he exists and loves you, or would you rather know for a fact that there's a god, that mankind has been in actual, factual contact with him, but he's a giant worm that lives on mars?

Odd question, I know, but I'm curious. Options again are

A) I believe in God, but I'm kind of not sure even though I sometimes pretend I am.

B) I've seen pictures of God! He's a giant Martian Worm that loves me!



Personally, I have to default to B. I don't believe in God, so if I were to be faced with the choice between having faith and having proof, I opt for the proof. Worms never bothered me though.

Nothing comes from nothing.
There is a lot about quantum mechanics which does not seem to make sense. One is that there are really uncaused events.
I read somewhere that every quantum event is uncaused, which means "cause-effect" only has meaning in the classical world. Doesn't it logically follow that the classical universe (can I make that distinction???) has no cause, but only a probability?
