Atheists Aren't Sure

ATHEISTS AREN’T SURE
Throughout history every culture was religious. Every culture understood that the physical universe couldn’t cause itself to exist, so a higher cause not of the physical universe must necessarily exist.        
No one has ever been able to successfully explain the existence of the universe without the need for God, but now our scientists think they can. They say it all could have started with a Big Bang. Scientists measured the light coming from galaxies and concluded that the universe is expanding. Then they took this questionable measurement (there is credible evidence against it) and concocted a whole new story. Physicists theoretically plotted back in time and speculated that fourteen billion years ago the entire physical universe was crunched into a physical particle smaller than an atom.      
The Big Bang is not based on facts. Calculating how something could have happened does not prove that it actually did happen. What scientists are saying is that if the universe is expanding then it could have always been expanding starting all the way from nothing, and the Big Bang mathematical model is how it might have happened. Scientists have merely speculated about how the universe might have emerged from nothing. And there is another problem. As hard as they have tried scientists have not been able to scientifically explain how something could actually come from nothing. This means no energy and no vacuum – absolutely nothing. Something from nothing is magic, not science. So what would be the original cause?    

Science is supposed to be based on facts – not speculation. How could a scientifically educated person actually believe that an infinitesimally small particle exploded and accidentally became this magnificently complex universe in which we live in today? Many scientists are smart enough not to believe it, but this theory has caused many millions of people to trust science and believe that God does not exist.     

Atheists don’t understand that even if the Big Bang theory were true, it still would not explain how the universe exists, because how would the primal Big bang particle exist in the first place? How did the entirety of physical reality come to exist? It would either come from God or from nothing, and only someone with an atheist’s mentality could be led to believe that something could magically come from absolutely nothing.       

I understand how atheists think, because I used to be an atheist. Atheists are people with only a rudimentary understanding of science. They know just enough science to be an atheist, but they don’t have enough scientific understanding to realize that scientists cannot actually explain the universe without God. Atheists don’t know enough science to know whether scientists are right or not. Atheists have blind faith in science.        

When I was an atheist it began to trouble me that I was betting my life on a world-view that I didn’t know for sure was true, so I began an in-depth study of science to find out if scientists really can explain the universe without God. What I found out completely astonished me. I discovered that contrary to what we are led to believe, even though scientists know a lot about how the universe acts, scientists don’t have any understanding whatsoever about how the universe exists.       

Atheists don’t realize how little scientists actually know. The universe consists of space, time, and matter. But scientists don’t know what space is or how it exists, and scientists don’t know what time is or how it exists, and scientists don’t know what matter is or how it exists. Scientists have discovered that four forces of nature cause all motions in the universe, but scientists don’t have any idea as to what these forces are or how they exist. Scientists know how gravity acts on objects, but they don’t know what gravity is or how it exists. And scientists don’t know what electricity is or how it exists. And scientists don’t know what the nuclear forces are or how they exist. The list goes on and on. So if scientists can’t explain what the universe is or how it exists then why would we listen to them about God?      

Atheists counter that the fact scientists don’t understand the universe doesn’t mean that God does exist. The problem here is that atheists don’t understand the argument. All past cultures understood that the universe cannot be explained without God, and today’s scientists have tried but failed to eliminate God, so God is still the only answer.     

Atheists have bet their lives against God. They have much to lose if they are wrong, so they fiercely defend their godless world-view. But they don’t understand science, so their main line of attack is to mock religion as if this has something to do with disproving the existence of God.      

Atheists are surprised to find that this page is focused on scientific evidence of God’s existence. Atheists don’t realize that science is not on their side – it is on God’s side. Science actually proves that God does exist. Read “Scientific Theory Of God: Proof That God Exists”.      

I invite atheist to scientifically prove me wrong, but they respond the only way they know how – with name-calling and profanity.      

Atheists believe the universe and humanity come from nothing and return to nothing, which means that we all live and die in an accidental and meaningless universe. Atheists believe humans are accidents of evolution – no more than insignificant, purposeless animals. This means, like all animal species, that humanity would live and then die on an insignificant planet lost somewhere in infinite space and time without a trace.      

Apparently many atheists don’t understand atheism, because they look for meaning in a supposedly godless and therefore meaningless universe. But finding meaning in a godless and soulless universe is merely wishful thinking, because nothing a human being would think, say, or do would have any meaning whatsoever. A human life would be as meaningless as a goat or cow’s life. It would make no difference whatsoever whether a person succeeded, failed, loved, or murdered during his or her brief existence on earth.    

I am not trying to convert atheists. Atheists have the free will to bet against God and humanity if they so desire. That is between them and God. I publish this page to help spiritual people looking for scientific evidence of God.      

I am surprised to get so many atheist comments. If human life has no meaning, then human thoughts and opinions have no meaning, so why would an atheist care about what is discussed on this page? Why wouldn’t atheists just live their lives as they desire while they can before they are dead and forgotten? Why do atheists try so hard to convince other people that human life is accidental and insignificant – unless they are not so sure? Atheists must be trying to convince themselves.

Mohammad Shafiq Khan Einstein's Theories of relativity lead to Big Bang Theory whereas under Big Bang paradigm there is absolutely no possibility of existence of God for following reasons.

1. Philosophically for any existence; it has to be some substance (visible, invisible, perceivable or not perceivable) and this applies to God also. Substances occupy space but there is absolutely no space for God to exist at the time of Big Bang & before.

2. Four things come out of Big Bang namely space, time, matter & light/radiation. We cannot look for eternal God in space & time as both had the beginning; secondly humans are in a position to produce all types of light/radiation and something which humans can produce could not be the God and since matter is made up of electrons, protons & neutrons these too could not be the God.
However Theories of Relativity & Big Bang Theory including Cosmic Inflation have been mathematically, theoretically & experimentally proved as baseless in the published paper "Experimental & Theoretical Evidences of Fallacy of Space-time Concept and Actual State of Existence of the Physical Universe" which is available at the journal site at http://indjst.org/index.php/indjst/issue/view/2885.

Dave Benfield 'Nobody can imagine how nothing could turn into something. Nobody can get an inch nearer to it by explaining how something could turn into something else. It is really far more logical to start by saying ‘In the beginning God created heaven and earth’ even if you only mean ‘In the beginning some unthinkable power began some unthinkable process.’ For God is by its nature a name of mystery, and nobody ever supposed that man could imagine how a world was created any more than he could create one. But evolution really is mistaken for explanation. It has the fatal quality of leaving on many minds the impression that they do understand it and everything else; just as many of them live under a sort of illusion that they have read the Origin of Species.

But this notion of something smooth and slow like the ascent of a slope, is a great part of the illusion. It is an illogicality as well as an illusion; for slowness has really nothing to do with the question. An event is not any more intrinsically intelligible or unintelligible because of the pace at which it moves. For a man who does not believe in a miracle, a slow miracle would be just as incredible as a swift one.'

Aaron Eggers Something had to create the universe. The universe is well designed and everything is put in the right place. Why is that? Science has yet to explain that and I love science. I see God. The universe had a beginning and that beginning was God.
