P1: If god exists, he has existed forever, and nothing has existed before him.
P2: Therefore, god must have existed for an infinite period of time before the present.
P3: There is no reason for a god to exist but not cause any other existence.
P4: Therefore, god must have created the world as soon as he began to exist.
P5: If god created the world as soon as he began to exist, there is a finite time period between
the beginning of the world and the present.
P6: But god has never begun to exist, as he has existed forever.
P7: Therefore there is an infinite time period between the beginning of the world and the
present.
P8: P5 and P7 could not possibly be true at the same time.
C: Therefore, god does not exist.
P3 is your downfall man. I wish you the best of luck with this argument, but your assumption that there is no reason for a god to exist without creating another existence may seem reasonable to us, but when applied to the concept of GOD, an omnipotent, omniscient being who controls and sees everything, doesnt quite make sense. we cannot presume to know what makes 'sense' to a God that presumably is the most powerful, intelligent, self-sufficient being in the universe. Also, the thing about people using religion to start wars isn't fair to religion. Those wars are the product of man's greed and ignorance in most every case, not the actual will of 'God'. Peace.
