MrSmith Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Yes they are as implausible. All scientific theories are constructed on the assumption that the universe doesn't need a cause for it's existence. Name one scientific theory that explains why the universe can exist without cause. Six possibilities in order of probability, The universe as always exited, Something as always existed that was capable of creating a universe. The universe just popped into existence. Something popped into existence that was capable of creating the universe. Something popped into existence that was intelligent and capable of creating a universe. Something as always existed that was intelligent and capable of creating a universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they're not - they're constructed from observation, deduction and prediction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assumption, prediction, tomato, tomaydo, call it what you want, it still boils down to scientists constructing implausible theories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danot Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 So in your opinion what is plausible? It's plausible to believe nothing can exist without cause or reason. It's implausible to believe all of creation exists without cause or reason simply because scientists are unable to offer a better explanation other than the creationist argument.

JFKvsNixon Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Blaaar-de blaaar. Assumption, prediction, tomato, tomaydo, call it what you want, it still boils down to scientists constructing implausible theories. I'll finish it off for you. The scientists create the implausible theories.........and then test them to see if they have any validity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's implausible to believe all of creation exists without cause or reason simply because scientists are unable to offer a better explanation other than the creationist argument. So your opinion then must be that the universe doesn't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
