WHO CREATED GOD?

Origin of matter, space and time It has been established that time and space had a coincident beginning. The universe was created from nothing through or after a ‘Big Bang’. The discovery of the ‘Big Bang’ is proof that time, space and matter are temporal and not eternal. The universe appears to be an effect and, thus, is seemingly dependent upon something outside of and beyond itself (a transcendent causal agent). The universe therefore, implies the need for a Creator or Originator outside of space-time. Even if we refuse to accept a ‘God’, reason demands that we acknowledge a Prime Mover or a power that caused the universe to happen. How can we acknowledge the universe and fail to acknowledge the cause of the universe? Feigning ignorance like many people do, is turning a ‘blind eye’ or ‘looking the other way’. Order and design in the universe After the Big Bang, the delicate balance of uniformity and irregularity in the inflationary expansion of the universe, the balance of matter, dark energy and dark matter that is responsible for keeping the universe stable as it expands, the perfectly tuned cosmological constant, hydrogen and carbon formation, the earth’s star, the sun’s luminosity, the forces and laws in nature, the value of the various constants that determine the nature of nature and a million other features of the universe demonstrate order and intelligent design. This in itself establishes direction and purpose in the formation of the universe and consequently these are evidences for a Designer, Director and Prime Mover. Many physicists, cosmologists and scientists have acknowledged this fact. For instance, Paul Davies says, “I concede that the universe at least appears to be designed with a high level of ingenuity. I cannot accept these features as a package of marvels which just happen to be, which exist reasonlessly. It seems to me that there is a genuine scheme of things—the universe is ‘about’ something.” Fine tuning for life Our unique planet Earth has been fine-tuned and custom-designed for intelligent life—the earth’s atmosphere, the earth’s magnetosphere, The most elegant and simple explanation for reality is that of an intelligent mind designing a rational, ordered universe that produces intelligent beings capable of understanding that universe.
