@kellyjay saidOh , then it was probably Krishna .
The universe and life I brought up because of the things I know, not because all that surrounds them are complete mysteries. The functional complexity of both the universe and life is so overwhelming that random chance should be eliminated immediately without even entertaining it. Universal values like gravity and the universal expansion rates precisely set where if either w ...[text shortened]... ence I brought forward compared to "I do not know." I do not think your are very convincing at all.
Thanks for clearing that up .
@caissad4 saidI've given you some of the reasoning for my beliefs, from you I got "I don't know" and now when asked why you said what you did, you admit you have no real knowledge. There is a pattern here, I'm sure of it.
That you have a belief in something but have no real knowledge to justify that belief.
Just a belief and nothing more .

You can believe whatever you like.
I'm interested in what you believe at the moment, claiming to know all about god of the gaps.
Do you think as long as everything is not fully understood by human beings you should not believe in God?
@kellyjay saidNo one has any real knowledge of the existence of ANY god or gods .

No one.
Just like believing in Santa Claus , The Easter Bunny , Zeus , Krishna or Harry Potter.

No one.
You are a strong agnostic I think.
One brand of agnosticism says "I don't know of any God. Maybe someone else knows."
The stronger agnosticism tries to speak not only for one's self but for everybody. - " I don't know of any God. And no one else does either."
You don't know that no one else knows of God.
You can only speak for yourself.
Did consciousness arise from the interaction of material things after a long long time ?
