When traveling to see a friend living far away does it Not require faith because that friend in Not with you ________
You have put forth faith that you will see that friend upon arrival and Not before.
It's odd the Abrahamic religions can't even agree what to call their omni-god-thing.
The Tetragrammaton (YHWH) is always the Tetragrammaton.
What happened is because of Jewish superstition the exact pronunciation of God's name is unknown.
The most common accepted English pronunciation is found in the old King James Bible at Psalm 83:18.

OK so tell us in your own words how things are created. whether it is building a house, or baking a batch of chocolate chip cookies, or writing a computer program, or composing a song. what is the process of creating. something. anything.
We know that a house, or baking a batch of chocolate chip cookies, or writing a computer program, or composing a song have been created because we know that such things do not occur naturally. However, in the case of the universe, we have no reason to assume that it is not a natural phenomenon. What you are using is the ludicrous and very badly flawed 'Watchmaker' analogy. Don't bother! You'll be shot down every time.

I found Paley's watch on the beach, but then the snowflakes started to fall.
Humans create on a smaller scale (casseroles, computer programs, automobiles). Creator creates on a larger scale (planets, nature, universes)
The process is the same though. Sentient being using intelligence and the creative process to create physical stuff.
Back of everything physical is the non physical intelligence that created it from desire and idea, through planning and design, through building and assembling, to finished casserole or planet or novel or galaxy.
The you that inhabits your body and looks out through your eyeballs has the same capacity to create as big C Creator. The difference is a matter of degree, and a conscious deliberate focused use of the creative process (rather than haphazard or scattered). But the process is the same.
Snowflake pixies DO EXIST?
