You brought me to Christ as a 35 year atheist.
Welcome to the family!
Glory be to God!
Sorry you left 🐹
Welcome home.
NO! If you are truly one of God’s own (and I sincerely pray you are!) then it is the LORD who gave you spiritual life - not Ken Ham!
Of course, the Lord could have used Ken Ham as His instrument, but the glory goes to God, not Ken Ham…
Thank you Ken, always appreciate your videos!
Evolution was one of the big reasons I stopped believing in God as a freshman in college. I remember watching your debate with Bill Nye, having no background in apologetics, and completely throwing in the towel. I’m so blessed to say that God never gave up on me, and many years later I have come back to my faith! Your videos have helped me understand all those problems I had with science and religion before. Ken Ham, you are a blessing upon the world. Thank you so much!!! ❤
How did evolution stop you believing in god?
If that's true, then I don't think you understand evolution.
Most Christians accept it.
Francis Collins, one of the world's foremost geneticists, is an evangelical Christian. He was the Head of the human genome program that decided the human genome. He looked inside the human gene. He said it clearly shows our ancestry isn't human, and we're related to all other life on earth.
Is Collins, and all the other geneticists wrong?
Has Ken Ham or any creationist decoded the human genome?
@Moist._Robot because Darwinism (common descent) claims bacteria morphed into humans via mutations...it's a full fledged (unscientific) alternative to the Christian faith
Evolution is 100% compatible with the Bible. You just have to understand the Bible in its context, language, and culture. And don't add things to the text which are not there.
@unsightedmetal6857 it's 100% incompatible. God "spoke and it was done, He commanded and it stood fast", and it's impossible to read vast imaginary eons into the generational records from Adam to Christ in the Gospels. Christ refers directly to Adam as well as Noah as literal history
Truth!
what is?
Fairy Tales.
@@Silver77cyn evolution is a fairytale. It’s an idea lacking in the very evidence that is claimed necessary. The Bible is not a fairytale.
The Bible states in the beginning, God created the heavens in the earth; Edwin Hubbles, discovery of the red shift demonstrated the universe had a beginning: evidence confirms the Bible.
The Bible states God created all living things; the fossil record shows the sudden appearance of lifeforms, without any ancestral forms necessary for evolution: evidence supports the Bible states God stretch out the heavens like a fabric; astronomical observations confirm the universe is expanding evermore rapidly every moment: evidence supports the Bible.
The Bible states, sin entered the world, and with sin came death; the fossil record shows the extinction of well over 90% of all things that ever lived on the earth: evidence confirms the Bible.
The Bible says the heavens in the Earth are wearing out like a garment; the second law of thermodynamics states, the energy level of the universe is descending to a low common level and complexity is degenerating into chaos (it being understood the universe is a closed): evidence confirms the Bible.
The Bible states the mountains were thrust up, and the valleys were cast down; plate tectonics, demonstrates ions, zones, produce mountain ranges, and subduction zones produce deep, rifts, and valleys: evidence confirms the Bible.
The Bible states, the waters were gathered into one place, and the dryland appeared; geologist have determined there was once a single giant supercontinent at a single giant ocean: evidence confirms the Bible.
The Bible states all things were created by Jesus Christ; Frederick Hoyle discovered the fine-tuning of the universe, and found it convincing evidence that a supreme being had adjusted the laws of physics, so that life is possible in the universe: evidence confirms the Bible.
The Bible is not a fairytale.

A - "Oh. There must be another more logical, rational explanation."
B - "Ok. I'm waiting."
A - "Well. I don't know. I just know I haven't thought of it yet."
B - "Are you actually going to spend time to come up with one, or are you just saying that?"
They always find a way to insert that disingenuous "I don't know" and never manage to really offer a better affirmative alternative, if even any affirmative alternative.
Very well then I would like you to give us a step-by-step process on how Elohim created the universe? What mechanisms were used?
If you can't explain with extreme detail on the step-by-step process then you are no better at knowing than anyone else.
@@mustachemac5229 The point is to offer an explanation that's better. It's not a silly game of who knows better.
An uncreated God is better than a God that was created, as demonstrated by Ken Ham. An uncaused first cause as opposed to infinite regression that doesn't align with reality.
@@JiraiyaSama86 That doesn't explain anything. If you believe that Adonai was the creator of the universe then how exactly was that done?
You don't just get to claim that it was a god but then give no further explanation or just claim that it was a mystery.
That doesn't tell us anything.
I can easily argue that there doesn't need to be a first cause by claiming that there is an infinite regression.
I can easily make this claim because theists like to claim that their god is infinite so why does your god get to be infinite but not an infinite regress?
It's called special pleading.
@@mustachemac5229 If an explanation needs an explanation, you'd have the same problem of infinite regression, and reason would not exist. You can't have reason if every explanation demands an explanation.
For this universe to begin to exist, the cause has to be spaceless, timeless, and immaterial. God fits that description. You can argue that the universe was eternal, except the evidence doesn't suggest so.
Are you saying that theists can't have good reasons to believe that God exists?
God spoke and it happened. @@mustachemac5229
Thankyou Ken for saving me from religion.
Your arguments against an old earth were solid and since the evidence against a young earth is overwhelming, there were only two rational conclusions remaining. Genesis and Exodus are all allegory, or made up completely.
One vote here for made up completely. Believe at your own peril.

thank you ! My Brother , well said
Excellent! Thanks ! I will watch this again and share with many people. Brilliant
Good luck with that argument 😂
Luck has nothing to do with it FAITH. !
@@dancochrane617 faith is believing in something without evidence.
Like I said good luck with that. Nobody in his right mind Will buy that story.
You can’t buy it. It’s a free gift. Plenty of evidence. Creation is proof. No evidence of evolution. “ Big Bang “ is a theory. Ask God and He will show you if you are willing. He loves you
To believe as an atheist,you must believe in billions of miracles taking place to get where we are today and they have no problem with it,they just have a problem with THE MIRACLE MAKER,because He has given us rules and there is where the root of the problem lies.
Very well if you believe that Elohim created the universe then perhaps you can give us all a step-by-step process on how that occurred?
I mean, I constantly see theists complaining that science can't explain the origin of the universe, consciousness, morals, etc.
So please enlighten us.
Atheism isn’t a belief.
Learn what atheism is.
@@Moist._Robot Well, I think it really depends on how you define yourself as an atheist.
Positive atheism is the belief that there are no gods, so technically that would be a belief.
Would you agree?
@Moist._Robot Atheistism is the foundation for their Belief in EVOLUTIONISM and EVOLUTIONISM is the Atheists religion.
@@mustachemac5229
I don’t believe in any particular god.
And I’m certainly not a theist.
Therefore I’m an atheist.
Thank you, Sir. Your voice has reached me in Africa. You are making a difference. Your light is shining. Please keep the light on and thank you for not giving up! May God bless you and your team!
Lovely presentation Ken Ham.........blessings and appreciation form Sydney Australia .

Keep doing your great work, Ken!
I know this teaching... AMEN, THANK YOU KEN!
I liked the arrowhead analogy👍🏻
You helped make me an atheist, Ken. You and your Ark Experience. Thanks for helping me to open my eyes.
I think the big question is where the laws of nature come from,laws that ALL matter obeys,not only here on earth,but throughout the universe.As Einstein said ,"the miracle is,that the universe is intelligible".
As far as is currently known, through the billions and billions of dollars spent by Big Science on space telescopes and atom-smashing laboratories, such as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, the only explanation found for how the laws of the cosmos operate, is through completely NATURAL processes. The fact that no scientist (whatever his spiritual or non-spiritual beliefs may be) has never won a Nobel Prize for providing any kind of evidence or proof for a non-physical explanation behind the properties inherent in the working of that cosmos.
And, incidentally, though as Ham has claimed, DNA may indeed be complex in its functioning, it is nevertheless made up of simple groupings of atoms that operate on the process of electrical interacting charges that are known and predictable.
You are right.
In other words, a book that Ken likes says a thing, so it must be true.
I really appreciate your speech; it was so well articulated! When considering Psalm 14:1, it becomes evident that the statement 'There is no God' isn't merely an intellectual assertion but rather a moral one. It stems from a rebellious heart rather than just a benumbed mind.
The only tools of a manipulator are words, only they have no cover in reality. A manipulator lies to you in the direction you want to be lied to, that's all. Everything just depends on what and especially how much you are willing to believe. The moment you stop believing, the story just as suddenly stops existing, because the story had existed all along only in your mind, it made it seem real. Wake up to reality!
In Jesus' Name God Almighty bless you Ken Ham for an excellent analysis of the Word of God. May The Lord Almighty's Holy Spirit abide with you, Amen.
Amen, Ken. Amen.
The thing that I always get wrong are the names of his 2 sons. It's actually Thor and Balder...NOT Loki
(We're talking about Odin, right ? )
I thought we were talking about Ptah. 🤔
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
That’s a great interpretation I haven’t heard before.

Amen brother
The explanation to the little boy says it all!
Why did God decide to create?
The little boy inadvertendly debunked Ken's whole arguement, everything has a beggining.......EXCEPT for this timeless splacess magical invicible genie.
If we as finite beings cannot understand what it means to exist outside of time and space, how can we know it's even possible?
Very good point. Ham is merely making an assertion here, as he so often does.
@@Zero-ei8jn The idea that something (God) can exist outside of space and time is one of those assumptions people make all the time. And I don't mind people making assumptions, they should just be honest enough to recognise and admit it's an assumption.
Ken, just explain what you mean by 'outside of time'?
yeh, if god occupies no space, doesn't exist in time, is immaterial, then that would be the same description as 'nothing' .
Ding, lightbulb.
Does that really answer the issue? No. All Ham does is repeat a claim the a deity created everything. Is Ham really afraid of saying the words: I am not sure? Maybe the reason he gives the same speech over and over, is fear that any change might mean changing the whole argument. That's the problem so many others have when the "Holy Scriptures" are concerned. Admit one error and it's a green light to wonder what else is not infallible about the "Holy Book".

The thing about alien intelligence is that we are aliens ourselves where in this scenario there is not necessarily an infinite regress of intelligences but rather intelligence is a property of nature that evolves over time. We can distinguish between nature that lacks the property of intelligence and nature that has the property of intelligence. It is possible for an intelligence to seed life, even create universes in terms leveraging nature against itself, but it is impossible for the property of intelligence to just exist because it is a complexity that needs time to form. That is why if actual intelligence was required for this universe, advanced aliens would be more plausible than our fantasy Gods/Goddesses.
Ken, Atheists despise one, major principle:

@@jonathandumbell9384
That sense of responsibility comes from God, because you are his creature.
@@heinpereboom5521
How did you get so deluded?
@@jonathandumbell9384Sure you are... Psalm 14/Romans 1:18-32..
How does the big bang seem more convincing or realistic than God? How did all the mass and energy get condensed to a point the size of a pinhead, and then suddenly explode? Where did it come from? No one knows, and it is no less unfathomable and supernatural than God. In fact, there being no designer poses more problems than solutions since we are surrounded by complexity while the Universe in the present, post-fall form tends toward a state of disorder.
Remove the concept of “nothing”(and there really is no evidence for it) and a creator becomes irrelevant. 🐹
@@CR-yd4qe Lol... you think all matter and energy being condensed to a single point is logical at all?
The fact is that the universe came out of nothing is actually a Christian one. Take Hebrews 11:3, 2 Peter 3:5, John 1:1-3 and Psalm 33:6. Unless you can give me a bottle of words, God essentially created the universe out of NOTHING.
I know it's quite popular with apologists who read "A Brief History of Time", this is certainly NOT the scientific consensus here. Mathematically we can approach the "Big Bang" up to 10E-40s - with diminishing certainty. It's true that Hawking is a proponent of the idea that at the very beginning there was a singularity with infinite mass and infinite density, but again - that view is not shared by everyone. Roger Penrose assumes the universe was created by an apparent singularity. One implication of this is that the major events at the "Big Bang" can be understood without unifying general relativity and quantum mechanics, and therefore we are not necessarily constrained by the Wheeler-DeWitt equation, which disrupts time.
Others find the question utterly unscientific since all the physics isn't well understood and there is a limit to our observations. Which is a fancy way of saying "we don't know".
@@deepwaters2334 Lol…. You think that a supreme being appears out of nothing and makes 700 billion galaxy’s (and counting) just for little old you.🐹
@@CR-yd4qe Lol... you think that the whole universe was the size of a pinhead and then exploded for no apparent reason? Sure sounds unlikely!

@@charlessmith4242 the Quran is scripture, right?
@@MrGuzmanraNot hardly. Muhammad, or someone, wrote that book out of their head. No inspiration, no nothing. He started with a religion only, but got very few converts. Then he hit upon the idea of jihad with raping and pillaging, and he got converts by the thousands.
@@MrGuzmanra I am talking about the Bible.
Scientists have no response for this. The speed of light C isn’t constant since the measures of time and distance aren’t constant over larger distances. It’s like changing from 60 kilometers an hour to 60 miles an hour increases your speed. Then if you go from 60 miles an hour to 60 miles a minute it increases your speed even more. This what is happening in general relativity when less gravity increases the measure of distance and speeds up the rate of time over large distances. It also means that the earth is younger than what they claim. The universe doesn’t care about how young the earth is. Actually the changes in time and distance compound the changes in the speed of light. Do a thought experiment. Hold your hands a foot apart representing 186,000 miles saying “one thousand and one” representing one second while pretending to see an imaginary photon going from one hand to the other. Now expand the distance saying “one thousand and one” as fast as you can. You should notice that the speed of the imaginary photon increases the farther away from the center of the galaxy it is.
@creationdestroyer69 You just admitted that you don’t know what time and distance dilation means. That’s all I need to know about you.
@@JungleJargon
There's time dilation and length contraction. If you knew anything about either you wouldn't have used the term distance dilation. Creationdestroyer might be able to explain it to you. At least he sounds like he knows more about it than I do.
@creationdestroyer69 Yes the speed of light is absolutely constant as far as the amount of gravity that we experience. It’s always 186,000 miles per second. The problem is that clocks don’t always run at the same rate and distance also dilates. Time and distance are never the same unless the amount of gravity is the same and gravity is almost never the same throughout space.
@@ateriana5116 Time and distance both dilate and contract. Time speeds up and slows down. Distance expands and contracts. This is what effectively changes the speed of light.
@creationdestroyer69 I’m not talking about special relativity. It’s gravity alone that changes clocks and measures of distance. Mathematically the speed never changes but it doesn’t matter because the changes in time and distance exaggerate the changes in the speed of light. Do the thought experiment.
So ist es!
Ken another question :
Did god make the decision to create time .. in zero time?
If yes then how was it a decision? (2 states existed A not decided and thereafter B decided)
If god took time to decide to create time then time already existed before supposed god created it.
You don't need a god to create a god, just like you don't need a god to create a universe.
We have evidence the universe exists.
Where is the evidence that any god exists?
Why do people choose to believe in 2000+ year old fables when we've spend the intervening millennia learning about how the world actually works?
Next week: "What Christians ALWAYS get wrong about Thor and Odin"
Ken Why did god bother to create the universe instead of continuing by itself?
A. It needed to create the universe for it's continued survival?
B. It did not need to create the universe for it's continued survival?
If B then Why did god bother to create the universe at all? Was it bored being by itself?
They don't merely have it wrong, they have it willfully wrong. To wit;
""Moreover, that materialism is absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door."
Richard Lewontin, Harvard Geneticist, Billions & Billions of Demons,
The New York Review of Books, Jan. 9, 1997, Pg. 31.
Nice piece of quote mining. That is a thing that makes apologists so disingenuous. The complete quote reads: "Moreover, that materialism is absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door. When the wrong question is being asked, it usually turns out to be because the right question is too difficult". Lewontin was not a theist, but as a Marxist, he couldn't support hard core naturalism as well. He firmly rejected Neo-Darwinism, because if nature (and people) weren't malleable then society wouldn't be malleable as well, rendering his ideal society an impossibility.
So he was ranting here against sociobiologists and evolutionary biologists who - according to his ideology - were oversimplifying the real natural mechanisms at work. No theist was intended to be harmed.
If you'd done your homework and had an open mind, you would have known this. BTW, I'm not a great fan of Lewontins work. On the other hand, other apologists (like Lennox) have misquoted Lewontin (and this quote in particular) as well.
Truth and only truth is absolute.
The truth is what the facts are. Not what a charlatan like Ken ham thinks.
Amen Ken, thanks for your lifetime ministry.
Beautiful.
Where does matter come from?
a) I don't know. That's a mystery.
b) There's a God that refuses to show themselves except for a whole bunch of times over 2000 years ago.
c) Pick one of the many other religions in the world.
Rom 1:19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.
Rom 1:20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Rom 1:21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
You can see God every day in his creation. You just need to look.

What's funny is that Ham is doing precisely what he accuses non-believers of doing. there must be a god because he can't accept that something just happened. And his argument about the ever bigger god fails because he says it must end with a god that is the biggest and most omnipotent of all. But of course it doesn't have to end. It could go on for infinity. There is no reason why not.
There is no "infinity" for a life that must end. We relate to infinity and believe that there is no limit to it. Everything is bounded, only eternal existence is not. We see the cyclicity of life and death and we have the impression that only this exists, and through these experiences we understand our infinity, but not eternal existence.
@@danstoica2824 "There is no infinity, except the infinity I say there is". Sorry, but that's not an argument, that's an opinion. My point was that Christians have this way of putting up a backstop (God) whereever it suits them. The universe is a finite place, but God is not. The universe requires a designer, but God does not. That's just an arbitrary decision. My point is that if the universe requires a creator/designer, how much more does the creator designer require a creator/designer of their own? To say the universe requires a creator/designer, but that the creator/designer doesn't, isn't really logical. In the regression of a God that creates a God that creates a God, and so on, stopping anywhere is completely arbitrary. There is no reason the regression couldn't go on to infinity.

Actually agree to everything he says. Hats off
He's right that God doesn't need to be created (because He could have an infinite past), but unfortunately his whole argument collapses, since the material world could also have an infinite past, in which case we don't need to postulate an immaterial being to bring the material world into existence (which would actually be anti-explanation, since it would have to be more complex than the material universe it purports to explain). KM needs to study infinity (I'd recommend Georg Cantor).

Particularly Westerners rely on logic and rationale, rather than trusting what our subconscious or unconscious mind is trying to tell us. Our consciousness is the interface between this reality we perceive with our five senses, and the reality outside of our five senses, which is where the soul largely exists. So if we are to know God, and ourselves it’s important to trust, what our subconscious or unconscious mind is trying to tell us. I had an experience a few days ago, I was getting my evening meal ready, something was trying to tell me something, but I was preoccupied trying to get my evening meal ready. I took out a fish from a card carton and put it in the oven, the other fish in the carton I put in a plastic bag and put it in the freezer. I was going to the front door with the card carton to dispose of it in the recycling bin, and just as I was going to open the front door, I felt in my mind somebody shout at me, “Look at the date!”. When I looked at the date on the carton, it showed Dec 2023, so the fish was at least five weeks out of date. I don’t know whether it was God or one of my relatives that had past on, but I’m very grateful. Otherwise, I could have had some food poisoning. After I had chucked both of the fishes in the general waste bin, I place my hands together looked up to the ceiling and said, “Thank you God”. The interesting aspect of that experience I had, the words of, “Look at the date” wasn’t spoken to me, like people speak to each other through sound waves. It was telepathy, the words of “Look at the date!” came into my mind with sense of great urgency.
Occam's razor would support this...
Ken: "How do we know there is a God?"
Ken, the Bible makes claims of Elohim. That is not evidence nor does it give you or anyone else knowledge of such a deity.
You are agnostic to a god just like everyone else .... Unless you are gnostic, which is knowledge of the spiritual.(god)
I'm fairly certain you would deny being a gnostic so that would make you agnostic. Just to be clear, gnosticism and theism are two different standings.
One is belief while the other is knowledge.
Are you alive on earth? That is all the evidence you need. Stop suppressing the truth.
@@H-D-D me being alive on earth is just evidence for me being alive on earth.
The rest of what you said is just presupposition
@mustachemac5229 You not understanding by default, or simply denying the fact that intelligent design demands an intelligent designer is a presupposition as well.
@@H-D-D But there is no intelligent design
@@H-D-D It's okay my friend. I know you're mad at the world and the apparent suffering.
Everything will be fine once you pass on and return to the Earth.
Until then, I'm here for you.
Congratulations. Your "bigger, bigger, bigger god" lesson does more to disprove the existence of God than support the idea that It does exist.
@@Mario_Sky_521 I used to puzzle over the eternal divine in my earlier life, before I concluded that it isn't important. One day I was born, and one day I'll die. What is important is how I live my life between those two days. If I live them well, I'll leave behind a world that is perhaps better. If I don't, I pray I will not leave it worse off. It is the god(s) we choose to follow that will make us who we shall be.
And you increase the views of Christian videos. Thanks!
@@InfoArtistJKatTheGoodInfoCafe You're welcome, if true. But so much of what Christians say isn't.
There are things that will not be answered in this life time.
A perfect God created an imperfect world, that makes sense?
Your God sure does like to play hide-in-seek Maybe he is just shy, or maybe he just doesn't exist. Now that does make sense!
You are such a blessing to me and my family. I am going to be going to the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter this May. My wife and I will be celebrating our silver wedding anniversary. May God bless you. Shalom.
You have got to be kidding?
You’re grown adults and still believe in Noah’s Ark? 😂
As in Acts 28 verse 27, turn and I would heal them, ( as an example in Acts 2 Verse 38) therefore everyone needs to repent confess heartedly and acknowledge Jesus Christ done on the Cross, invite in your heart and accept Him As your Lord and Savior, to receive the assurance of Salvation as in 1John 2:25, to God be the Glory
Thank you for sharing. :)
Every Matter in the universe that has LIFE, has a DNA, and every DNA in this universe has a link directly to the Creator, who is God.
Praise God for this channel!! You have Yeshua (Jesus), now all you need is the Torah!! The Torah is eternal:
Matthew 5:17-19 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to complete. For truly, I say to you, till the heaven and the earth pass away, one yod or one tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done. Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens."
Isaiah 42:21 - It has delighted יהוה, for the sake of His righteousness, to make the Torah great and glorious.
Psalms 19:7 - The Torah of יהוה is perfect, bringing back the being; The witness of יהוה is trustworthy, making wise the simple;
Psalms 119:44 - That I might guard Your Torah continually, Forever and ever;
Romans 2:13 - For not the hearers of the Torah are righteous in the sight of God, but the doers of the Torah shall be declared right.
Romans 3:20 - Therefore by works of Torah no flesh shall be declared right before Him, for by the Torah is the knowledge of sin.
Romans 3:31 - Do we then nullify the Torah through the belief? Let it not be! On the contrary, we establish the Torah.
Romans 7:7 - What, then, shall we say? Is the Torah sin? Let it not be! However, I did not know sin except through the Torah. For also the covetousness I knew not if the Torah had not said, “You shall not covet.”
Romans 7:12 - So that the Torah truly is set-apart, and the command set-apart, and righteous, and good.
Romans 7:22 - For I delight in the Torah of God according to the inward man,
James 1:25 - But he that looked into the perfect Torah, that of freedom, and continues in it, not becoming a hearer that forgets, but a doer of work, this one shall be blessed in his doing of the Torah.
---------------------------
The Torah Is For All:
Exodus 12:49 - “There is one Torah for the native-born and for the stranger who sojourns among you.”
Leviticus 24:22 - ‘You are to have one right-ruling, for the stranger and for the native, for I am יהוה your God.’
Numbers 15:15 - One law is for you of the assembly and for the stranger who sojourns with you - a law forever throughout your generations. As you are, so is the stranger before יהוה.
Numbers 15:16 - One Torah and one right-ruling is for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you.
Numbers 15:29 - For him who does whatever by mistake there is one Torah, both for him who is native among the children of Yisra’ĕl and for the stranger who sojourns in their midst.
Anyone who accepts that logic exists, that mathematics describes reality, that every effect has a cause and yet denies that there was a creation of it by a rational Creator just does not recognize the inconsistency of their position. If we try to understand reality, even by denying that it has a beginning we are using reason, a spiritual faculty. Where is it possible that spirit comes from matter with no purpose? If we even the question we are seeking a rational answer which would be illogical if there were no purpose to existence.
Mr. Ham, you get it right EVERY time! God Bless you Sir!
I believe that our universe came about by natural processes. I believe it came by the process of God, naturally. 😂
It is not known if the universe had a beginning. Big bang only describes the big inflation of the universe, where all of our models and maths fail.
The idea that the universe always existed are similar hard to imagine as the idea that god always existed. Replacing "universe" with "god" in that point of view, does not help at all.
And even if our known universe was created and had a beginning, this does not mean, that the process that was responsible for that required some supernatural being. I could imagine a multi-dimensional super-universe, that by some process created our 3D+time universe. We will never know, but to replace that unknown with a god is no needed.
You got off track when you said, i can imagine.
@@christophercowan1645 Why?
@@gobberwarzen because you can imagine anything. Anything is possible. You can't just imagine some process. What is the process?
@@christophercowan1645 The point is, that there are other options than a god. When you take all the made-up stories on why the universe has come into existence, god is only one of these imagined stories. Yes, anything is possible, even the existence of an universe without a god.
BTW: What is the process that god made the universe.
@@gobberwarzen Well, in God's case, we would have to say it is above the natural, aka, supernatural. In other words, if space, time and matter came into existence at the big bang, which is what our current evidence shows. Well, something had to bang it, number one. And, secondly, since those things came into existence then the cause MUST be OUTSIDE of space, time and matter. You will never get a natural cause for the universe. It is not possible. For the simple fact that space, time and matter didn't exist to create space, time and matter.
If god existed there would be no need to prove his existence
You can't be wrong about something that doesn't exist.
Creation ex nihilio or out of nothing is not accepted by Islam or Mormonism, and neither is it accepted by Plato whose doctrine was similar. The Greeks posited the idea that matter always existed. Thus the "creation" as they saw it was just the rearranging of matter. Irenaeus in a fragment attributed to him expresses what looks like anger when he reviews that idea; which does no more that suggest that all God does is "push matter around." but does not actually create. This brings to mind Patrick who spoke of the "creator of creation" in order to distance himself from those who looked upon the material world as not having been the result of a decision made by God to create. In other words there may not have been a creation had God decided against the idea and moved ahead with the idea to create. .
Right on Ken, you explain it wonderfully! God bless you and yours Sir!!
And we have repeatable evidence of this belief all around us. Bricks have brick makers, buildings have builders. Paint has paint makers and paintings have painters. These things don't just spring into existence. Likewise, the universe has a Creator.
that painter analogy has been debunked for years. Still some people still believe it.
@@davidpiot8098 you can't debunk common sense.
@@Sundayschoolnetwork and still it is debunked. It is a fallacious argument and false analogy. Do your research.
@@davidpiot8098 considered false by whom? Again, this is common sense.
@@Sundayschoolnetwork by many People David hume being one of them. It is a Very bad argument to use as evidence for the existance of a god or the universe. It is most certainly not Common Sense and it proves nothing.
Like I said do your research.
Actually, most of the people don’t understand what is God because they don’t feel that they need salvation
We live by faith, it is simple as that. Next, every soul to be saved is written in the book.
Our only job on this planet is to first love God with all your heart. Then love your neighbor as you love yourself.
After that? All is irrelevant.
Add Brian Griffin into the mix while you’re at it~
Brother Ham. DNA as I have been told is a parts list without assembly instructions. So how do these parts get assembled? I know you know this. Check out psalm 139. I’m sure it isn’t the only passage that makes this clear. God puts each and everyone and everything together. That is an awesome thought. Blessings
There are assembly instructions contained within DNA. Research more. And all the original information was created by God.
I don't get how the whole 'god is eternal' thing is supposed to resolve the real issue here- Christians want to pose the question 'why is there something instead of nothing?' as though that's some sort of impossible question for atheists. Well my response is, why is there a god instead of no god? How can you account for god existing? Even if he wasn't 'caused' in the temporal sense, what is the antecedent that is responsible for him existing?
Even if you think that, in the absence of god, nothing would exist at all, you still need to be able to explain why there is in fact something instead of nothing.
I don't think the Bible says God created time but maybe.
If he did create time and can move around in time reality becomes really hard to understand.
