Millions die in Natural disasters - God is doing nothing. Do I adopt Anthropomorphism to him?

  Prologos, you quite flippantly reffered to god leaving mankind to natures mercy as him leaving us to fend for ourselves now, as if some defence. My analogy was that if you want to accept that, you must accept he left us dangling over a cliff, unless you dont think your god foresaw all of this?

  Anyway, it is a circular argument, no religious person can explain suffering. Though islam do s good job, they think of god as a distand powerful entity uninterested in human sufering or activity. Though you should see them pray before exams..... :D

  This universe can support the hypothesis of a simulator and not a creator. There's not a single evidence towards a creator, actually we have evidences against a creator.

  But going beyond the BB, our universe can be a simulation in a super fancy (quantum) computer. Maybe we are just an experiment (ant colony) from a teenager alien simulator, he just set up some fundamental forces and darwinian algorithms and he left our universe running while he's out party rocking. In his time frame he just left a couple hours ago.

  If we are lucky (depends on his hangover) maybe anytime he'll release us in the "internet" or just reboot his "computer".

  That's far I can seriously think of a "creator".

  KateWild: If you believe in a God concept that does not contain human properties, why do you bring it up in a discussion on Gods which DO have human properties such as the God of the bible? Sorry, but it is just off-topic.

  People told Higgs he was crazy and many years later in a circular tube voila!!!!! Higgs Bosun.

  He had faith although at the time there was no hard evidence.

  and he was right all along

  You must be kidding.

  nohahstourguide: No he did not have faith. Based on decades of experiments and theoretical work by him and others he carefully formulated a theory that made certain predictions; he then did not accept (and demand other accepted) his theory as true before evidence came in which confirmed his (and the other people who also worked on the problem) ideas were correct.

  It is EXACTLY the OPPOSITE of how faith work.

  No... Peter Higgs had EVIDENCE for the existence of a Boson, not faith. He mapped it out mathematically long ago to show its existence and then it was found to be true in testing.

  Do you think he came up with the idea from thin air? With no evidence supporting its existence at all?There was a whole world of physics surrounding it and showing evidence for it ! The higgs boson field provides mass to all matter, it didnt require faith to know it was there, but eyes and hands!

  It just goes to show how significant it is that there is no evidence for even a suggestion of a god, nevermind actual evidence!

  Higgs et al had a "strongly held theory". What dictionary are you using?

  It became evidence when it became evident
