The very fact that we seek God is telling. If we are beings created by chance, we do not need God. Yet we seem to need God.
We are hardwired to seek explanations - accepting effects without causes seem to go against our nature. Our hominid forefathers on the Savannah had to be able to look at pawprints, hear the rustle in the grass, and form a "Sabertooth Lion" hypothesis very quickly. In fact, those disinclined to seek for external explanations were very likely to leave the gene pool prematurely.
Primitive cultures have a force inside of them that they should worship something greater. It is built in to worship . Some cultures carve images to worship. Some worship a made up deity.. nothing new.. it is in the soul of man that there is a power bigger than themselves and that deity is God.

They're all made-up deities. Worshipping isn't innate. Wanting to be immortal is, and all religions paly into that nicely. "Don't want to die? Worship this handy dandy omnipotent god, and you will live forever! Oh, and send money!"

The 'force' inside them was fear and ignorance and a need to rationalize things they couldn't understand - like volcanoes, storms, disease etc. So they made up stories of magical beings and gods who got angry with them.
I don't know if matter was created...Bill Gaedes "rope hypothesis" is very fascinating stuff...hope it really goes somewhere. It hypothesizes that all matter is "chained" together by electromagnetic ropes between atoms..and light does not consist of any moving particles. It destroy's Olber's paradox. And it logically explains gravity.
It is being stonewalled by a lot of snobs because it goes against everything Einstein learned us..
he also hypothesizes matter being perpetually "recycled" (which there is tons of scientific evidence to support this) and everything just exists..not previously. This would really put a gash in peoples perception of morality, among other things.
He seems to be a conspiracy theorist with a criminal background who likes calling people idiots, using childish strawman arguments and hypocritically accusing others of doing things he does himself.... so I'm not surprised you think he's great.
I'm not a physicist but his website doesn't really inspire confidence in his level of maturity
I believe that all mathematical physicists should be hanged
from the highest trees and telephone poles available.
If the laws forbid this, or it messes up the landscape,
then we should institutionalize the whole lot of them.
But keep in mind that there aren't enough funny farms to hold so many idiots.
You mention his hypothesis "destroys Olber's paradox" like it's something amazing. Olber's paradox was 'destroyed' as soon we had evidence that the universe wasn't static.... like about 80 years ago.
As I said, I'm not a physicist so I can't really make educated comments on his 'rope' hypothesis but obviously neither can you.
Interesting that you have no problem with him using
No I don't. I think however that they should teach that Evolution has not been proven
and that much of it is still unexplained. It's also think people should emphasis that Evolution isn't a threat to religion. I believe in God and evolution, it's just a tool that God uses.
Funny though, I see a lot of atheists treat evolution and science like a religion.

Why do you say Evolution has not been proven?
What is unexplained about it?
