This forum is quite sad, how can people argue with science, it explains everything!
Why must there be a higher power? Because it written in your holy book?
i find your post quite sad. please do some research first with regards to 'our' book, you will find that it goes hand in hand with science.
do some research on the scientific masters of the past (this will include mathematics, medicine, optics, astronomy etc etc) you will find that the leaders in all these fields were muslims and their research came from the Qu'ran.
as for your atheistic views the burden of proof lies with you, not us! you need to prove us wrong.
please provide evidence of how the universe was created, where did everything come from? was life really created by chance?
please explain how a single cell was created, never mind how it has diversified into the millions of seperate living species that we know about.
i heard a good example once with regards to your argument...
imagine the earth at the begining (never mind the creation of the rest of the universe)
over a period of time through the forces of 'nature' a brick appears by chance
somewhere on the other side of the planet this process repeats itself (this then repeats and repeats over and over again)
now we have lets say thousands of bricks, scattered all over the world.
by some chance these bricks come into contact with each other (hmm... lets say the wind blows the together)
now we also need mortar (we will call it cement) it needs to be the right mixture and consistency to fix everything together
i hope you get my drift.................
so lets move on.
bricks are formed by chance, so is mortar, they come together and fix themselves, a room is formed.
there is wiring to sort out, the drainage to sort out, there needs to be heating, water supply, sewage system and an ability to repair itself.
now imagine this room is the average small 2 bedroom house (how many rooms?)
living room, kitchen, stairways, landings, bedrooms, windows, doors, electrical wiring, water pipes, plastering, decorations, roofingetc etc
now if i was to say all this came by chance , i think i would be sent off to the nearest loony bin!
so the science you believe in holds no water, infact what you are trying to prove makes you sound like a loony.
