Exactly HIAG has used the absence of proof that god doesn't exist, to surmise that he does. Like I said, you might as well believe in a six headed blue fire breathing dragon that spits out planets, because you cannot disprove that one doesn't exist.
Yes, I have read most of the Sitchen books. As Graham Hancock has said, we treat the stories of the Sumarians as myths, and yet they are the first civilisation to appear on this Planet, and it appears out of nowhere, fully formed. Myths are based on those that came before; but if the Sumarians were the first, how can their tales be myths? When they say that the Gods from space (they did not refer to them as "aliens") came to Earth and created Man, and gave him the plough and fire, etc, why do we treat those stories as anything other than the truth? Don't you think it strange that the Sumerian history is never taught in our schools? Why don't they want our kids to learn about this stuff? Do you think it might have something to do with the fact that our kids might start to wonder if what the Sumarians said, in very great detail, about our origins, might actually be true? That is a topic for a whole other thread!
That is one way of looking at it, I suppose. But it isn't the way I look at it. Do you believe in God or a Creator? Which ever answer you give can be based only on faith. That is the point I have been trying to make.
So the idea that God sprang out of nowhere for no reason is equally as absurd as the idea that the universe sprang out of nowhere for no reason Reminds me of that image of the Serpent eating its own tail ...
HIAG is bouncing between a god that created everything and the Sumarian tales of Anunake that came to earth from space (Niberu) and mated with humans. Very confused in his beliefs.
He wants to believe anything that isn't the mainstream view of science as it doesn't fit his belief system. As I've said, this leaves him open to all sorts of questionable and delusional thinking.
Laughable at best, clearly everything in the galaxy is control by cause & effect. (Like you opening your mouth and getting rag-dolled every time). Clearly there was something there to have caused the effect. Secondly what proof do you have that there was nothing? Whose to say that there were not other galaxies before ours was born? But I’m sure we will all be thrilled by this truth that we are blinded from. Truth means an indisputable certitude so I wait for your explanation of this.
Since man evolved from the primordial soup/was created he has always questioned his existence. It is the fatal flaw in our make up. All through our history man has believed in an array of gods and graven idols in his quest for the answer. Man in the name of any given God or totem has effectively slaughtered millions of his fellow man in that quest. Religion has no standard model unlike science which does to which parts of its understanding are fact based. The pseudo scientists just expand their own unproven thoughts to fill in the gaps which in reality is liken to putting a band-aid on a leper.
