Resolved: God is more likely than not to exist.

I reject the claim that god exists, because no god has been demonstrated physically, contingent on physical reality, or logically. Since there has been no demonstration for god, the demonstration cannot be replicated or used to make accurate predictions about the nature of this creator of the universe; there's no reason to believe that "god exists" is true. Furthermore, the origins of our universe do not require/allow for a creator, thus no god is needed. Our universe has zero total energy, because the spatial curvature throughout the universe is zero. All of the positive energy (+matter) is cancelled out by all of the negative energy (-gravity) in our universe so that the total energy of the universe is in fact zero. http://astrogeo.oxfordjournals.org... As a total energy set, matter and gravity in the universe would look like [+matter, -gravity] = 0. So, without a big bang, matter and gravity are at [+0,-0] = 0 There is no matter or gravity to speak of and of course the total energy is 0. In this zero energy state, there is no space/time/matter/energy/gravity...nothing. How do we know what this nothing is? In our universe of space and matter, when you strip "something" of particles, radiation, and energy, you are left with nothing but empty space; this empty space is full of quantum fluctuations. http://physics.aps.org... Quantum fluctuations are sub nuclear particles existing and being annihilated by antiparticles, and the forces between these sub nuclear particles fluctuate as well. This is what nothing is. http://scholarsresearchlibrary.com... But the sub nuclear particles are something, right? Nope. They never statively exist; they exist and don't exist at the same instant, and it is this fluctuation that makes up nothing. There is no "nothing" without these fluctuations, period. What is nothing? It is a state of fluctuating sub nuclear particles and their forces called quantum fluctuations. That link is a great video for explaining nothing = quantum fluctuations. So, when there was no space or time at [+0,-0] = 0, there were quantum fluctuations where space and time fluctuated in and out of existence with the sub nuclear particles and their forces. The zero energy [+0,-0] = 0 quantum fluctuations are an unstable state, because of the constant fluctuating of these sub nuclear particles. So... These quantum fluctuations, nothing, are so unstable that energy is guaranteed to be expressed from these quantum fluctuations. Unstable [+0,-0] = 0 --> The Big Bang [+1,-1] = 0 At the big bang, we have (+1) some matter and (-1) some gravity, which now allows for stative space and time. The universe expands [+10,-10] = 0 Inflation accelerates [+100000,-100000] = 0 So from zero energy quantum fluctuations [+0,-0], there was the big bang [+1,-1] = 0 Something [+1,-1] from nothing [+0,-0]. The big bang left cosmic microwave background radiation behind. With the right radio telescope, even you can see that the space between the stars above us isn't just black space, it's filled with microwave radiation. http://aether.lbl.gov... NASA has measured it with an anisotropy probe located on a space shuttle called WMAP. http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov... The radiation is basically uniform except for minor thermal variations proportional to the variations we've measured in quantum fluctuations. http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov... So we know that from quantum fluctuations, the Big Bang was expressed, not created, thus there is no creator of the universe, because there was no creation; creation is a temporal concept that requires time, and at [+0,-0] there is no space or time; there was no time for creation to happen. There is no need to infer a god to explain our universe's origins, and it is nonsensical to talk about a temporal concept like creation without time; I argue a creator of the universe is therefore also nonsensical. I reject the claim that god exists, because no god has been demonstrated physically, contingent on physical reality, or logically, and there is no need to infer a creator of the universe. All logical arguments for god presuppose god's existence, use special pleading to avoid infinite regresses, use post hoc regression that fails to account for natural fluctuations, or appeal to ignorance; all arguments for god have false premises or contain fallacious logic. I reject the resolution based on such. I plan to address Pro's logical arguments/graphic organizers for god next round...
