yeah, i watched about 3 minutes there for a bit. this guy is a weirdo. going to be hard to gain any reasonable credibility if you act like a weirdo right off the bat. ask the ufo guys... and the bigfoot guys.

Long-time comic book fans will of course know that Mike Murdoch is actually Daredevil's fictitious twin brother.

Naturally, we also all believe there are giant easterbunny's hopping around somewhere. Not sure what they do before and after easter though.

Cept I wasn't asking you about the Easter Bunny. You stated nobody believes that nothing was created from nothing, so I'm asking if you are aware that also means everybody thinks there was 'something' when there was 'nothing'

FYI, I don't know anything about young earth except that a chick I used to date was raised 'young earth' for the first 7 years of her life

I didn't say 'nobody believes nothing was created from nothing'.
I said 'nobody in the scientific community believes the universe was created from nothing'.
And yes I am aware that this sentence is to be interpretted relatively as there will always be exceptions. I'm talking about the respected scientist in todays world.

Respected scientists in the world.

And what do they believe the universe came from? How are we to conclude the are "respected"? Since there is zero evidence, how can their opinion be deemed scientific?

I don't believe in young earth, I do believe God created the universe.

Which god? And by that I mean who's god? There are many and every one of them claims to be the only one, all others are imposters.

If God is everything all the time in all place, as Islam, Judaism and Christianity maintain, then your question is somewhat nonsensical.

Essentially the scientific belief that there is multiverse generator attempts to explain the improbability of life, which could be explained in another less arbitrary way, by saying it was designed to produce life. Neither is scientific, but one uses observable data.

Nobody ever said they were proven. A true scientific model will offer at the very least a theoretical basis founded on mathematical formulas and actual knowledge of physics. For instance the 'loop quantum gravity' theory(LQG).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_quant ... et_algebra

Conversely theists suggest the universe was just *Poof* created out of nothing. Offering absolutely no rational argumentation whatsoever.

Doesn't the Big Bang theory and the multiverse theory have the same problems?

As for offering theories with a mathematical basis:

Honestly I don't see your point.

My point is that if there was something, it came from somewhere. The result that that something had was to create human life. Speaking of mathematics, we then have a problem which we can deal with in two ways:

1. Human life was designed.

This deals with the improbability of life coming about.

2. A multiverse generator.

This uses utterly unobservable data to account for the improbability of life.

Please do not try to state your theory is more respectable or scientific than concluding God created all.

1. It deals with the improbability of life coming about? Are you kidding me?
We don't even know for certain how probable it is to have life. Though some things are for certain. For instance the vastness of the universe has an enormously positive influence on the drake equation.
Not to mention that there has been proof, though not conclusive yet, that life started out in outer space(fossilized bacteria found on a meteorite which fell on earth somewhere in India). There has been proof that there are a lot of planets in the universe which have viable living conditions.

2. Yes these theories are more probable than a god creating all. These theories are at least based on laws of nature that are observable. The variables in the equations aren't just jibberish. I find it also noteworthy that from what we can observe on earth, life especially intelligent life is one of final steps in planetary development. According to observations it takes certain conditions to have larger organisms exist.
This is opposite to your creationist theory, of which I once againt iterate, has no foundation except for some untrustworthy texts.

Lastly I'd like to point out that yes indeed something has to come from something. This applies to your deity too.
And assuming you're going to argue that your God is eternal, I'd proactively point out that you may as well skip a step then and say the universe is eternal.

ps: I'm not stipulating that creationism is impossible. I am rather saying it is improbable as opposed to other theories.
