Isn't it Unscientific to posit God at the Beginning of the Universe?
In this short 2 minute video, Dr. William Lane Craig responds to the objection that it is unscientific to say that God is the creator of the universe.
Another perplexing concept is to ponder what exactly it was that an all powerful God was doing BEFORE he decided to create the Earth and humanity. That seems like an awful long time for nothing.
Hand in hand with this issue is the idea of a vast universe full of worlds and galaxies. I couldn't help notice the cover of this month's National Geographic magazine with the bold headline, "Are We Alone?" Scientists are now certain that there are an infinite number of worlds scattered throughout the cosmos that probably contain life.
Is the Earth really the center of all that space? Why did God create such vastness for merely us?
"Scientists are now certain that there are an infinite number of worlds scattered throughout the cosmos that probably contain life."
There is no evidence to support the claim that there is life on any other planets.
You ask, 'Why would God create the universe which just Earth being populated with living things?' It was to show forth his handiwork and glory (Psalm 19:1-6).
But Bristol, nothing in the Bible or Science (for that matter) supports the Mormon claim that there is countless amounts of worlds where other gods are creating spirit babies to populate that world and then rule over them.
Not all scientists let alone all science hold to this form of cosmology Bristol. There are those who hold to a universe that has a centre and that the earth is uniquely placed to view the glory of God's creation.
