Thus your god argument is either circular and logically weak (god's existence and role in creation comes from his defining properties) or basically irrelevant (god's existence and nature can ignore, defy, contradict the world as we know it, and thus everything is possible). Once you accept the ultimate deus ex machina, everything could have been created 5 minutes ago including your brain and thoughts on the big bang and dinosaurs. Or everything could be an illusion fed to your mind by a malevolent genie, that could change the laws of physics at will tomorrow. But none of those theories are interesting because they add zilch to our understanding: they can come in infinite variants, none of which can be falsified. |
