I submit what would be unnatural in a computer is the software

Why are you ducking the obvious next question?

You've discovered an awesome all knowing God. Surely an awesome all knowing God couldn't just exist naturally, in nature. Something even more awesome and even more all knowing must have created this awesome all knowing God you've discovered. How could it be any other way? Your logic demands it. How do you account for this, besides ignoring it, i mean?

The most immediate ignoring going on here is you ignoring the problem of the natural origin of information.

Then your pulling the old 'you can't believe in God unless you can tell who created God' atheist argument out instead doesn't get you anywhere. We KNOW we (and our universe) had a beginning. We DON'T KNOW that about God.

------------------------------------

And the ignorant dishonesty continues.

Sounds like you were thinking: 'I don't have much of an argument here. I want to call the guy names, but can't pick between ignorant and liar .... ah, I'll call him both. Yeah, thats the ticket.'

-----------------------------------

You should admit there are no scientific reasons to believe in God, that belief is a leap of faith. Why can't you do that?

I'm not asserting scientific proof of God. I'm asserting its reasonable to believe in God and not irrational to do so, which I think you believe and want others to believe.

And in fact, I consider it actually more reasonable to believe in God than to believe in an infinity of universes, each of which is slightly different.

----------------------------------

Consider alien abductions.

I know you'd to put across the idea believing in God is like believing in alien abductions.

One difference - science doesn't tell us alien abductions are real. Science does tell us our universe looks incredibly designed for life. Science also tells us life is based on information encoded in chemical bonds.
