Then how about reason? If the universe is independant of any consciousness, which it is, how can it be created by some divine consciousness? Let me elaborate. I am conscious. My consciousness tells me that the universe, without a doubt, exists. That is my perception. Did it exist before me? Yes. As is existed before everyone else, and as it exists before everyone else who is to come. I do not know that through my consciousness, but the consciousness of others. This being said, the universe's existance is independant of any consciousness. Now, therefore, how can a divine consciousness create something independant of consciousness? Reason prevails.
If it were that simple, do you think there would be any debate? No. I'm not sure I even understand what you mean by this. Elaborate, please.
"If evolution was true, why don't we still evolution happening to this day, like a monkey evolving into a man." I think that's what he/she is trying to say.
I guess, I don't know. I've often thought about this aswell, but in the end I remembered I don't give a shit about Evolution.
we are somewhat evolved i think we will never stop evolveing i think us humans are somewhat surpier to other mammals and animals to even make 1+1 is a sign of high intellagence and even to make a building is a sign of extream intellegance and even to make a language thats universal is unquestionable intellegance even better we have opposeable thumbs thank god/higher being.
though we may have a higher thought process, there are so many other things non-human animals can do that humans cannot. saying humans are superior to other animals (just based on knowledge) completely takes away every other factor of a creatures special quality in the animal kingdom. a human is superior to an elephant in thought process, but an elephant is superior to a human in strength. saying one is superior to another in every way is quite egotistical. p.s. dolphins and dogs have the ability to add 1+1 (as well as some other creatures)
well i, personally, dont believe in god, therefore, i find it impossible for a divine being to create something out of nothing, especially with some sort of "magical power" they have. and im not sure of what most people think, but is it that god created the universe or just the world? but either way, i think that is logically and scientifically impossible.
Why would there be? Homo-sapians more or less as they are now have been on the Earth for thousands of years. The "monkey-men" evolved or died out literally ages ago. Lots here on human evolution.
