Key word: SPECULATION = The foundation on which evolution is constructed. Which evolved first (how, and how long, did it work without the others)? a) The digestive system, the food to be digested, the appetite, the ability to find and eat the food, the digestive juices, or the bodys resistance to its own digestive juice (stomach, intestines, etc.)?
The multiverse "theory" and its "foam" are just as ridiculous as a gigantic bearded guy creating heaven and earth. It's completely unfalsifiable, and quite frankly totally arbitrary. I always have to smile a bit when Richard is trying to justify it - it's awfully like a religious apologist defending his or her particular scripture.
I personally tend to agree with Carl Sagan, who thought that life is simply an emergent property of our universe. Nothing more, nothing less.
the multiverse theory isnt ridiculous why would there only be one universe . Hopefully m theory/string theory once its confirmed(hopefully) can shed light on other universes
@caius112 Do you know much about quantum mechanics? Or about sub-atomic particles appearing out of nothing and vanishing back into nothing. The questions about where these particles come from have led many quantom physicists to theorize that there might be alternate dimensions that these particles bounce back and forth from.
I challenge all of you to pick up the book Mere Christianity (C.S. Lewis) and read it for YOURSELF. He answers all your questions. I bought it thinking it was a defense against Christianity (I was an atheist too) and it changed my life.
You're point is interesting and I say it as an outspoken atheist. It's much more interesting than what people have to offer.
This kind of "Creator God" could be possible in some sense but is still not very plausible. Still, he/she/it wouldn't be the one in the holy books. And still Dawkins discussed it in The God Delusion, probably in Chapter 4. Check it out, I believe you do try to work out the truth.
