I’ve always been a fan of science. When I was still a Christian I tried using scientific discovery to prove some of the miraculous events in the bible as plausible. Since becoming a Deist I’ve been doing something similar. That is I’m using science to show the plausibility of a Creator.
It’s not that I do not believe. I believe with every ounce of my being in a Creator. It’s that from time to time I will come in contact with atheists that are staunch in their beliefs. I do not try to force others into my belief but if questioned I’m more then happy to show why. A lot of times these atheists will fall back on science to back up there beliefs. So I do the same just as I would use the bible to prove a Christian incorrect if it was needed.
Now there are a lot of examples but one day while I was reading the latest discovery in space I had a realization. The realization had nothing to do with the article. It is something that the majority of people believe in and is, in my opinion, one of the most plausible ways to show the possible existence of a Creator. It’s the expansion of the universe.
Science has shown that the universe is expanding and that its rate of expansion is increasing. Now for something to expand it has to have space to expand in. From here we can make the conclusion that the universe is sitting in an open space. It may not be an infinite amount of space but we can assume that it is vaster then we can imagine.
So in an unimaginable amount of space could not a being, an entity, beyond our scope of reasoning exist? Would it then be that difficult to perceive that a being that existed in such a place could lay down the laws of our universe and set everything in motion? That also this being functions in ways that is beyond the scope of human existence?
