All hypothesis are not equally likely. The hypothesis that there are infinite universes for example is totally unscientific because it claims something to have happened about which we know absolutely nothing about.-me-

Yup, just like you said. Your argument there says perfectly that multiple universes are just as unlikely to be fact as religion. After all, "it claims something to have happened which we know absolutely nothing about."

Now that is a pretty ridiculous statement. Are you denying your own existence? Do you hate God so much that to deny him you are willing to say you do not even exist? Are you so far out as to say such a thing?

Perhaps what you meant is that we have no scientific evidence of the Universe? Of course that is totally ridiculous also. So what do you mean then? That what science tells us about the Universe is false? Are you saying that all science is false? This from someone who says his pet theory is scientific? Seems to me you are in a very deep muddle here and really do not know what to say. There are only two alternatives here:
1. the Universe was designed (and therefore must have had a designer).
2. the Universe was not designed (and therefore must be due to random stochastic events).

Now, since you seem to agree with me that the only hypothesis proposed against option (1) is false, then the only logical, observed, and scientifically valid option is option (1).

WHAT? Please explain how you made the conclusion that I doubt my own existence or doubt the existence of the universe. Intelligent Design and Multiple Universes are not the competing theories here. TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE SARCASM, ALL I SAID WAS THAT THE MULTIPLE UNIVERSE THEORY WAS JUST AS 'FAITH BASED' AS ANY RELIGION. THERE IS NO SUBSTANTIAL, HARD EVIDENCE FOR EITHER. You deny your own religion when you laugh at theories that have no evidence.

Do you or do you not agree that there is no hard evidence which supports any of the world religions and therefore creationism? I will concede all day, and all of the night, that there is no evidence which supports multiple universes.
