How does he create the universe ? In six days ? And after each day, he " raa' ché zé tov ?" " he saw that it was good" repeated as many times. Whichmeans that he did not know in advance what he was about to do. Is this your basis for denying the message of Christ? Many creationists will tell you that a literal translations are not always the way to go. Take Noah's ark. One would have to concede that there is no way that Noah fit every animal on the ark. That is not possible. The creation of the world most likely occurred over 100's of thousands of years. 2 Peter 3:8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. What is necessary to focus on is how it started. Ultimately, YOU need to decide, did the world come from nothing or something? You believe in no God, so you believe nothing created something. I believe in God and I believe something created something. On this basis alone you can see that your argument loses credibility. In essence, you stand on nothing.

epstein, Just how was the universe created?? The "big bang" theory?? If so, where did the elements needed to fuel such an explosion, and the ignition of such a blast, come from? Are you really fool enough to believe that something comes from nothing?? Regardless of what you may call Him, a Supreme Being was necessary to cause any sort of event to happen that would result in the universe, the earth, oxygen, and your cardio system. Could such results be accidents?? That is scientifically unlikely. The elements required to build the universe, and everything in it, had to come from somewhere, and had to be manipulated in such a way, to allow such events to occur. Something cannot come from nothing. That is a scientific fact that you cannot, with any credibility, deny.
