I have a question for atheists. You believe that "something" sparked life right? Would you consider that a God, because in religious terms, that is a God? Or do you believe that life just appeared out of nowhere?

Even if evolution existed, which is probably the case, there must be something or someone that sparked evolution. For example, we all learned about spontaneous generation in ninth grade; it's virtually impossible to create life from non-life.

So, my question is: We all know something must have sparked life. Is that God?

Side-question: Is it even possible to consider yourself an atheist with that knowledge?

LightStruck: We don't know.

What caused the Big Bang?

We don't know.

Oh look, we have something in common.

More recently, physicists proposed that the Big Bang might be a result of dimensional 'membrane' colliding with another in the form of separate universes.
Superstring Theory and M-Theory, go look it up :x

EDIT
Yes.

Pretty picture.

But if so, what created the seperate universes. I've watched a program on it, I'm a science geek - what I'm trying to explain is that there will always be something for faith to hold onto. 8)

But then again, if 'god' started the big bang or whatever else someone believes, what created god if it isn't logical for something to be made out of nothing? I don't think you can say 'cause he's god' or something similar.

M-Theory is still pretty new... came about in the mid-90s.

If you're interested, it's always a possibility to pursue physics as a career

that's not the generally accepted definition of a god

when people hear god they imagine some omnipotent being made to look out after them and govern everything in existence, not some universal event that sparked life and set forth the wheel of progress

I wouldn't consider that a god, by traditional means

Explain why you don't believe in God( i won't really try to make you believe but i'll explain :P)

Why can't we except the fact that it's so complex beyond our understanding and we'll never figure it out o.O. What if we're all apart of a big scheme or a bored game in another dimension? WE can't prove it but its still plausible. For all we know our entire 'world' is inside a marble being used by some other being to play a game and no one knows we're here. (like in MIB :D)

Can you try explaining why you had to revive this thread? =/

Also, another theory of the Bigbang would be when Time and Space collided. Creating the huge explosion and releasing all the atoms.

I find this thread quite funny.. so much mis-information going around these days... quite sad...

The Big Bang theory makes absolutely no sence to me -_-
I get what they're saying but. Where did this ball of compressed mass come from? what caused it to explode?

Well, that would be the ''opposite'' of ''nothing''. Nothing = nothing obviously, so everything would be All the atoms possible, since atoms are the most basic stuff. And the explosion would be Time and Space colliding.

Again, physicists now have an idea of how the Big Bang could've happened as a collision event between two 11th dimensional membranes. It was never a ball of compressed mass to begin with, nor did it 'explode'.
