Rejecting The Existence Of God Is Reasonable

Dear Con,Why do you ignore me?You never paid attention to me! You never even looked at me!Sincerely, 1st Round Definitions*Existence*Opt-in voters should take note of the rules from the 1st round.The rules are clear that by accepting, which Con managed to do correctly, one agrees to the definitions provided by me (Pro) in the 1st round.Therefore, existence means "having objective reality" even if Con wants to violate the rules and attempt to make this debate about the "way of living" of the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority.Boo Con.*Resolution*I will be affirming that dismissing the objective reality of the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority as inadequate has sound judgment.I will do this by showing that...*Creation is Temporal*Creation is a number of time-based actions, of a related kind, coming one after another, taken in order to bring something into existence.Con has already agreed to this, given the definitions of this debate.Therefore, creation is necessarily a temporal process that uses events, one after another, to bring something into existence.This process, creator existing-->creating-->created product, is unavoidably time-based.If there is no time, there is no creation.*Precedence Is Temporal*Creators not only use a time-based process consisting of one event after another, they also necessarily precede their creations.The process of creator existing-->creating-->created product can only be described, if and only if the creator comes before, or precedes, its creation. Well, before (precedence) is another temporal or time-based concept.How could a creator precede its creation without time?Con, can you distinguish between a creator and its created product without using time or temporal concepts?I argue that without time, one cannot tell the difference between a creator and its created product; one wouldn't be able to tell if creation has occurred because there would be no precedence.*Spacetime*While you may get some differing physicists' opinions on whether or not space and time are the same thing, there is no dispute that they are interdependent.In fact, that's why they put space and time on a continuum, spacetime."In the first place it is clear that the equations must be linear on account of the properties of homogeneity which we attribute to space and time."http://www.fourmilab.ch...Space is also currently expanding at a fixed rate proportional to the distance between the galaxies, called the Hubble Constant.http://iopscience.iop.org...What's great is that we can go back in time by using the inverse of the Hubble Constant and see how long the universe has been expanding.Doing this indicates that space, and therefore time, were at one point very, very small, and as recent anisotropy probes have detected, there was a point when there was no space, therefore no time.https://science.nasa.gov...This means that our universe's origin is also the origin of spacetime.When there was no universe, there was no space, therefore no time.Spacetime and the passage thereof originated at the big bang, the origin of our universe.Therefore, creation, which necessarily is based on spacetime, cannot occur without the universe's space existing first.It'd be like saying that a creator used time to originate time...the temporal inadequacies should be obvious.There is no creator of a universe that wasn't created and rejecting the use of time to originate time has sound judgment.*Morality =/= god*Morality is just behavior towards others, and when we consider the "others" toward whom we're behaving, actions that lead to the maintaining of homeostasis of those others are more moral than actions that lead away from the maintaining of homeostasis of those others.Since homeostasis does not require a source of all moral authority, morality doesn't either.Therefore rejecting the existence of the source of all moral authority has sound judgment.*Conclusion*Dismissing a creator of a universe that wasn't created is reasonable, because using time to originate time is a nonsensical concept.Dismissing a source of all moral authority is reasonable, because no ultimate source is necessary to determine if something is moral or immoral; we actually have wonderful, natural mechanisms to tell the difference.Con?
