Thanks sig226, and thank you for posting the Astronomy Pictures of the Day... they are wonderful.

Your post is quite reasonable. I agree.

When atheists say, for example, "no need to posit God, because we have an explanation for matter, it is made of such-and-such..." to me just begs the question, "Who set up the framework for this to occur? Who invented space and time?

If God did it, then, how absurd is it to argue about the universe being billions or thousands of years old? He invented the time by which we primitively try to measure a handful of things.

We ultimately know very little, and certainly not enough to say for a certainty whether or not God exists."

Thanks for a most logical POV!

This is what the 'scienticic' types here cannot seem to understand; that umpteen billion year old univewrse was expanded out of nothing, matter, time and all, about 6000 years ago +/-
