I dont like church, nor would I ever lower myself to actually attend one. But I believe compleatly in a god, just not in the traditional sense, to me, god could range from being a universal concience controlling everything in existance, to an extra-terrestrial species that planted the building blocks to evolve into the organisms we have here now.
God could be a concience of our galaxy which itself contains over 100 billion stars most of which contain their own solar systems as it spins and travels through space exceding 620 kilometers a second, or god could be the concience of a black hole that is causing the reletive movement of our galaxy from its center controlling our cycle.
But reguardless of what god may be, there absolutly positivly has to be one. Because if you had one chance for life spawning for every single particle in the entire universe, in the 15 billion years since the big bang, we STILL wouldnt have life on a straight up probability factor.
If our earth wasnt tilted in the correct way, we wouldnt have life... If the moon didnt exist, our earth would be spinning so fast a day would be 8 hours, and we wouldnt have life due to there being limited tides. If the big bang was slightly hotter, our universe would be comprised solely of helium and no life would spawn. I mean fuck, the list could go on and on...
You could ofcourse go off the anthropic philosophy where if the universe wasnt so perfectly adapt to posessing life, we wouldnt be here to observe its perfection at all.
But I think thats bullshit. Athiests are sad pricks with flawed logic. Consiquently, so are most religious people... But hey, contrary to popular belief, humanity is still an extremily primative race.. Our misconceptions and stupidity will slowly become ironed out through the comming centurys provided we dont kill ourselves off first.
Time will tell.
