dalaman: Oga , you just committed the anthropocentric fallacy - you and this fallacy are like 5 and 6 . You cannot access reality through an exclusively human perspective. How far ? 2 Likes |

Here's why GOD created the universe: "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created." Revelation 4:11 KJV 5 Likes 2 Shares |

KingEbukasBlog: Oga your religious beliefs is all about anthropocentricism. It claims that the creator of the universe even came down to sacrifice himself and be killed so that humans can gain salvation and be in a relationship with him. What can be more anthropocentric than that? How have you been bro? It's been a while. Nice to have you back. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

dalaman: Have you forgotten that Christians are also open to the idea that God created an intelligent life-permitting universe or even a multiverse ? This is not anthropocentric at all .

dalaman: God expressing his creative powers and taking pleasure by doing so ( anthropomorphic view of the writers , take note ) isn't tantamount to satisfying egoistical needs . Don't we humans also enjoy doing things we have an inclination for ? Does this mean we are satisfying our egotistical needs ?

KingEbukasBlog: Read what he wrote. He said God created for his glory and honor. Glorify and honour his name to whom? The only possible answer is "to other humans", which comes right back to ego. A perfect being with an ego that needs reinforcement? Isn't that what he's saying? 3 Likes 2 Shares |

johnydon22:That's a more far-fetched concept than the Abrahamic God. To me, it's much less likely. The Abrahamic God is more credible. |

KingEbukasBlog:Christians having their cake and eating it since 525 BC! Humans are imperfect creatures of many flaws, foibles and frailties. Your God is supposed to be PERFECT, so divine that human beings are not even worthy of him - even Christians do NOT MERIT the Grace he allegedly bestows on them. This is a well established narrative that you all teach and preach. Why turn around to compare your God to man in order to defend him? Tozara 4 Likes 2 Shares |

dalaman: The mistake you and other 'atheists' make is that you see God out side you; like you are one being and God is another being. Maybe you should read up on the Higgs boson, and get an understanding of the fundamental building block of the universe. God dwells in unapproachable light, He cannot be seen, He fills the universe, he knows the thoughts of your heart, He is the very blood that flows in your veins. He built the universe from scratch. He knows the nano-particles by name and they obey Him. He knows the universe by name, and it obeys Him. Can you think? |

To the self-denying atheists viewing: Why do you think the universe came to be from a big bang ? Why do you think the world came to be from the chaos of a black hole even when the science you template to supposed 'rational' reasons states that something can't come out of nothing? ![]() |

Dalaman ... Universe is one part of God design.. And they are more that is still unknown to man, through it we recognized God attribute.. God has existed before the universe was created... Which shows he created this universe not because he require it but because the universe will require him... How? The universe is inhabited by his creature, it is a host for inanimate object such as stars and other planets.. All thIs object both animate and inanimate are demonsrating the nature and character of God.. Just like the pottery work of a Potter or art collection of an artist... So the question turn around... If pottery work can have a purpose for the potter and art collection can have a purpose for the artist... What is your own purpose? 1 Like |

segunojo866: They don't? It's basis of all your assertions. If you'd be touting evolution as an explanation, you'd first have to explain how the simpler living organisms came to be. Of course, you'd revert to the Big Bang Theory in your bid not to credit creation as the reason and, by extension, a creator ( God). Which brings us back to my earlier point. ![]() |

Universe is one of many creations of God. It is a display of absolute perfection in His creation. In it (Universe) are other creations of God like Sun, Moon, which are essential for life on earth. From it He send rain to the earth, nourishing the soil and bringing out food for the sustainance of life. It is also a test for mankind, perhaps he may reflect over the power and perfection of God in His creation and submit to His will. |
