“other words the complexity of the universe makes it evident there is an intelligent creator, we see no direct evidence that the creator intervenes in the affairs of man.”
You are an existent self aware person in this universe that was created evidently by some creator, right? Nothing occurs in a vacuum, dominos trip other dominos , right?
So why even the concept of a God that some try to find and others try to run away from?
There is never smoke without a fire!
As a Deist I of course believe that there is a God which I prefer to call a creator but have never been able to buy what I see as the absurd storyline of the Bible and have researched and found no evidence that the stories ever happened.
As to why atheists don’t even believe in a god at all, perhaps the complexity that I see is not enough to convince them. They want direct evidence not circumstantial.
