I do appreciate your responses.

Religion certainly has failed in many aspects even to represent properly the Bible's creation account. Informed persons like yourself are well aware of the religious record of hypocrisy, oppression and inquisitions so they find no reason for considering the God whom those religions are supposed to represent.

I do agree, Solon, that ideas as eternal torment--that God will roast people in a literal hellfire forever--are repugnant to reasoning persons. My point in the last comment to you was that the evidence in the Bible is that God also is repelled.

For many people, including myself, there is sound reason to believe that an unseen Creator does exist. We can see it in the technical perfection and intricacy of atomic structure, we can see it in the magnificently organized universe, in the unique planet Earth, in the amazing designs of living things and in man's awesome brain. I think that these are effects that must have an adequate cause to account for their existence.
I believe that even materialists accept this law of cause and effect in all other matters. Why not also regarding the physical universe?
