A Few Illogical Arguments For God's Existence.

1) The fact that the universe began.

2) That fact there is existence rather than not.

3) The fact that the universe and life reveals organization, design, symmetry and systems so complicated that nature and random evolution could not possibly offer an alternative explanation. This makes God probable and existence without God improbable.

I found this short list of arguments on the Internet a few days ago -- these are used very often by 'believers' when arguing for the existence of a God. Starting out with the first one "the fact that the universe began". Those that attempt to use this argument forget two important things. Firstly that it is not a fact that the universe began, it is assumed that it did with the Big Bang Theory. They believe that before the Big Bang there was nothing -- in their ignorance they truly believe they have a respectable argument when they say "how can something come from nothing". But that is not what the Big Bang theory is suggesting, it is not suggesting that it was the creation of all energy, it suggest that it is the creation of this particular universe. The energy and matter that we are composed of is much older then we are -- to say that the energy and matter that composes us will turn to nothing after we die is as wrong as it is to say the that nothing created everything.

The second and third arguments are very similar -- and neither even come close to doing what they are suppose to, which is argue for the existence of a god. Is the universe complex? Well, if we assume humans are the baseline for understanding in this universe, then yes, it is complicated for us. People that assume this universe was "made" just for them, are the same people that are unaware of the billions of galaxies in this stupefyingly large universe. They think that if they cannot understand how this large universe works in its entirety, that it must have been all created by a god who loves us, and cares about us, and sends us to Hell for not knowing about him. It is like saying "the sky being blue is proof of fairies". The only thing that the complexity of this universe proves is that us humans have a long ways to go before we are able to fully comprehend it (which will probably never happen). And to touch on the end of the third argument, how probable is it that we exist? The odds of existing are 100% -- why? because we do exist, there is a zero chance of not existing. To say that existence is proof of God is like saying rainbows are proof of leprechauns.
