I wonder, could you give a bit more detail on this. This is my problem with this answer to life’s most important question—Were you there at The Big Bang? Or is this faith in “The Big Bang” based on blind faith in authority? Can something come from nothing, with no outside force or intelligence?

Thank you so much for your reply.

You came from GOD. You are here because this is the place prepared for you during your mortality. Satan was cast here to prove we as human will choose GOD. The War continues on as GOD shows humanity shall persevere vs Satan believing selfishness will persevere.

Some questions have no answer [at least not on this side of the ‘great mystery’], but are ‘over thunk’ by ‘experts’ and academics.

I am reminded of the ole college philosophical question: Why?

To which the appropriate response is: Why not?

One can spend a lifetime searching for the answer to a question that has no answer, or one can simply live one’s life. Therein is the choice.

I assume that you are going to be equally demanding of corroborating evidence and fact-based arguments when the theists proffer their answers, right?

A question for you, regarding Matthew 16:28*: What did Jesus expect his listeners to think he was saying when he told them that? Or expressed differently: What would a reasonable person, hearing that, think was the amount of time to which Jesus was referring? Does that statement suggest a waiting period consisting of a) a few days; b) a few weeks or months; c) a year or more; d) one or more decades; or e) thousands of years?

Regards,

*"Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."

Read Hebrews 11:3. Sounds a bit like the big bang.

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Genesis 1:3.

Yes, something can come from nothing - see virtual particles. Who said there was no outside force or intelligence ? Nobody's proved that. Nobody with a brain would try.
