Why does "proving" god exists always seem to "prove" that humankind is really, really special and exists alone in the universe?

For that matter, why would the creator being have to care about humans at all?

If your going to use complexity and order as "proof" of a creator, think of this:

If the universe is too complex and orderly to have just happened and god is an incomprehensibly complex and orderly being, then god can't have just happened.
I'm not saying the Christian god was the cause of all this, merely A higher power, and another good point about the creator having to be created, there could be higher powers above higher powers, God, Buddha, Ala, all could have been different higher powers, or rather all the same godly figure just differentiated by different cultures and religions.

Our universe not only has order to where our life could've been possible but sustains the same, temperature, distance, etc it needs to for us to survive today and does everyday.

Just because god is capable creating our life and everything we know, which obviously seems complex and orderly and amazing to us, doesn't quite mean were even a spec of what could be possible.

You say god couldn't have just happened because he'd be an incomprehensibly complex being, but he's only incomprehensibly complex from our tiny species point of view.
dkgpro Reviewed by dkgpro on . religion, Creation, and Random occurrence? Hey s Just wondering, and since we're all high enough I'm sure, what are your views on not so much religion, but how we came to be, or exist. I for one believe in this day most religious churches out there are for the donations and even most don't use proper bible teaching in their houses of god. Which makes a lot of todays generation take religion the wrong way I think, and there for throw the whole thought of a god out the window. I just can't fathom that out of all the dead space Rating: 5
