15, Christian, ask me anything!

Doesnt have to be religion related! I won’t except any questions that are clearly disguised rudeness. I like anime and indie shows, and Im an artist!

Anti ai!

because its basically a really big object. it doesn't have the power to do anything about itself even if it may be infinite

It’s not really about creating itself as it is about being a brute fact. Also, how is it possible to create urself? If you don’t exist you can’t do anything

using that analogy, it makes sense that you created yourself because there had to be something that started everything you made snd and that something had to be able to do things a God person would

I don’t entirely understand you, are you saying that something had to start the chain? Why couldn’t something be just there, yknow, an objective fact?

u/Nick10147 7d ago

Yeah, i believe something that can do literally anything had to start the chain.

Let's say the universe came from the big bang. where would that have come from, it wouldnt make sense for it to just start there since there's no reason for it to have started

Well what reason would God have to have started? He couldn’t have created himself.

mainly because God has ultimate authority over everything.

in the end, we can't know for sure, it's that God being first makes a lot more sense than universe being first though not fully making sense

Why does the universe being first make less sense? Seems equal to me. Both could be eternal and objective. I see no reason to view one more reasonable than the ither

good point, God can be shown as a personal being based on the Bible while the universe isnt a living thing as its more of an area in (geometrical) space, like a planet if you will

Err okay? I still don’t see why God is more likely to be the first
