>>>"And what completely blows my mind is that it never occurs to them that it is no more amazing to have a universe pop up out of nowhere then it is to have a God pop up out of nowhere. And if one was infinite so could the other be. And we know how a god can come of out a universe. We are almost gods and we know how we got here more or less."<<< You are positioning God as a thing, which of course you have to do if you are going to argue against the possibility of a God. However, the theology is that God created the temporal. The theology does not say what you impose on it. Theologians have considered your blown mind and rejected it as a false premise, a strawman. >>>"And we know how a god can come of out a universe."<<< I don't know that. The descriptors I've seen are "Unlimited, Omnipresent, Omnipotent," these characteristics are not consistent with your claim. I can imagine an infinite universe, but the claims you make are not infinite. They are time limited, with physical limitations. If scientists want to deal with the universe as if it is infinite, they have to start treating the subject that way. If not they are stuck with theory that doesn't pan out. >>>"always makes me want to set my hair on fire it is so frustrating."<<< Seems to be a perpetual condition in your case.
