I'll have to give this some more thought before I come up with anything that makes sense, even to me . Being an Atheist, I'm not sure that I even have the right to comment. I've been watching this Stephen Hawking's Universe thingy on the Discovery channel (or maybe Nat. Geographic, can't remember) and when he starts to describe the vastness of the universe and the billions of galaxys that it contains, and the possibility that there could actually be multiverses, well, it begins to stretch the imagination a little to think that one single entity controls all that. But if, for instance, he doesn't, then how much of it does he control? What is the extent of his reach? Who rules the rest of it? If God doesn't like the Devil, why doesn't he just zap him? Is it like a big game and God needs an opponent? How many other things do you believe that are completely unsubstantiated by even a whiff of proof? Why do people want to kill other people because they refuse to 'see the light'. Of course, I guess something had to set off the 'big bang'. BTW, in 'Creationism', what exactly was created? How much 'detail' does God pay attention to (if I cheated on my wife, would he know it, would he even care? - remember the vastness of the multiverse with it's billions of universes with it's billions of galaxys)? Wow, I have sooooo many questions? I need answers. I know! I'll go read the Bible. Nah, guess I'll just stay ignorant.
