| How can God not exist
Time cannot have always existed. Without a beginning time is a line stretching both forward and backward for eternity. In this model it is impossible to ever move forward or back in time because the start cant be defined without a start how can it exist? unless it created in which case the creator would be god.

| Re: How can God not exist
I do not know how God cannot exist. I'm VERY religious and know he does. I cannot believe the people who think the world was created by mere coincidence. Its so beautiful, and the people are far too complex to be an accident, along with the diversity.

God doesn't make sense. Our imperfection insures that. You need to be consistent in that knowledge. |

![]() Well to answer that it's best to ask a question first Q. If nature created everything, what created nature? And that very question has also led man to the concept of "god" But you asked, How can god not exist? To answer that you must first understand how god dose exist, and the only way god exist's is in are mind's defined by are perception of are self and the existence around us. Hence for god to not exist, man it's self must not exist, therefore man could not perceive "god" or thy work. So that's one way how "god" could not exist.( just to exist in another defined form) I call it "The Chicken And The Egg Complex" Hence one must exist in one state for the other to exist in it's present state. Which came first the chicken or the egg? Well the chicken logicaly come's first due to the fact that it lay's egg's, but this logicaly point's to the fact that chicken's didnt allway's lay egg's. But if the chicken didnt lay egg's would it still be a chicken? Hence a chicken exist's as a chicken due to the fact it lay's egg's or due to the fact man has defined it within one's mind as a chicken. Hence a God only exist as a God due to the fact that it has made an egg or due to the fact that it's egg or it's self has defined it as God.(the reason why could be related to the siGnature that I use) So If there is no egg to define or make the chicken exist in the state it exist presently, the chicken would not exist as a chicken. (Hope it all wasnt to hard to follow, parable reation's are tricky Complex) Here are some other question's related to the same thing ![]() Q. If god made man what made god? Q. If god has allway's existed why has god allway's existed?

| Re: How can God not exist Time does exist that makes so it much more plausible that it was created

I don't know what "caused" the singularity, but I can say the same for God. If I must assume that all that is has a creator, why must I not assume that the God has a creator? |

A chicken is not a chicken because it lays eggs. You are putting too much emphasise on the lingo. man didnt make it a chicken by calling it one it just was and we observed that |

| Re: How can God not exist Quote:
and for point 2 my argument deals with time not cycles of big bangs and crunches explained in a oscillatory system as far as time goes it is linear, it also it always making progress forward so either time always existed or was made ( go figure isn't it that way with everything) The very nature of time points to a creator without a start any point in time is the same as all the others that means time wouldn't be linear.... but it is |

| Re: How can God not exist because something had to always be or nothing could be things like time can only be explained with a creator because of their nature nothing indicates that about god
