God is alive

Contention 1: God cannot be Omnipotent (1) God is defined as omnipotent. Omnipotent: " having unlimited power; able to do anything." P = Premise C = Conclusion P1)If God exists, then God is omnipotent P2) This means that there is nothing that god can't do P3) There are things that God is unable to do. C1) God does not exists It is clear that my opponent will agree with me on P1 and P2 since they are advocating the existence of the Christian God (according to R2). Since my opponent will most likely not accept P3, I will defend this argument. Defense of P3 P1) An omnipotent being can create an object it can't lift. P2) If an omnipotent being can create an object it can't lift, it can't lift the object, thus it isn't omnipotent P3) If it can't create an object it can't lift, then it is not omnipotent. C1) Omnipotence is impossible. The usual objection to this claim is that this is a logical impossibility and god is bound by the logical absolutes. However to say god is bound, is a concession to his omnipotence. God can't even do all that is logically possible. P1) An omnipotent god can be evil P2) An Omnibenevolent god can't be evil C1) A god that is defined as omnipotent and omnibenevolent can't exist. Explanation of P1: An omnipotent God can do anything and therefore an omnipotent God can be evil. Explanation of P2: God in Christianity and many other major religions, is defined as omnibenevolent (all loving). Explanation of C1: These two statements cannot simultaneously exist however in the Bible they do. This means that the God (as defined in the Bible) cannot exist based on these logical fallacies. God is described as omnipotent in the Bible here: "For nothing will be impossible with God.” Luke 1:37 "Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure." Psalm 147:5 Contention 2: Free will (3) The Bible clearly states that we all have free will. This cannot be true since it also describes God as omniscient (all knowing). If God is all knowing, this means that he knows what will happen in the future for a complete certainty. Therefore this future is predetermined. P1: If the God of the Bible exists then he gave us free will. P2: If the God of the Bible exists then he is omniscient. P3: If God is omniscient then he knows what will happen in the future. C1: God must know what we are doing at all times C2: The God of the Bible creates a paradox. C3: The God of the Bible does not exist. Explanation of P1 and P2: God is described as omniscient (2) in multiple Bible verses, described as the following: “Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O LORD” Psalm 139:4 “He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit” Psalm 147:4-5 The concept of God giving us free will is presented in the Bible here: "The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." Proverbs 16:9 Now that this has been established I will move on ... Explanation of P3: This is utterly contradictory. If God knows that in 5 seconds a man will jump off a building for a 100% fact. Does that man have any choice of not jumping off that building? No. God knows that it is a 100% fact - that, by definition, is omniscience. The man has no free will however (apparently) God gave us free will and therefore, as a result of this, God has contradicted himself, which makes his existence significantly less likely. Explanation of C1: Assuming that God exists then this is true via omniscience and omnipresence. Explanation of C2: This is true since omniscience is contradicted by free will. Explanation of C3: God cannot exist because that would make a logical impossibility due to the previous conclusion (C2). Contention 3: The Big Bang Some advocates of God's exist believe that the big bang did not occur. Some advocates believe that God's existence coincides with the big bang. I will now demonstrate the following. P1: There was nothing before the universe was created P2: The universe was created by the big bang P3: The big bang was not created by God. C1: The Universe was created by the big bang C2: God did not create the universe C3: This disproves the existence of the Christian God since Christians believe in a divine creator. Demonstration of P1: The universe has no energy due to the fact that it is being cancelled out by both positive and negative energy - ie. matter and gravity (7). This means that there is nothing. Nothing, scientifically can be described as quantum fluctuations. A quantum fluctuation in this context can be described as something that has no matter,gravity, time, radiation and most importantly - energy (5). This is what there was before the big bang occurred. Since there was nothing in the beginning it is extremely difficult to prove that a creator was involved (6). Yes, it is possible but it isn’t necessary. You could say that God created evolution. It is possible but there is a perfectly rational explanation of evolution without the intervention of God. Quantum fluctuations because they’re … nothing. This instability will certainly allow energy to be expressed and since there is nothing, the proportion of energy to the universe is huge. This created the Big Bang. Demonstration of P2: I will now prove the second premise of my argument. The Big bang must have created the universe because it coincides with the following truisms. The redshift of distant galaxies means that the Universe is probably expanding. If we then go back far enough in time, everything must have been squashed together into a tiny dot (4). The rapid eruption from this tiny dot was the Big Bang. Another piece of evidence that falls in line with this theory is in regards to the mixture of certain elements. As the Universe expanded and cooled down, some of the elements that we see today were created. The Big Bang theory predicts how much of each element should have been made in the early universe, and what we see in very distant galaxies and old stars is just right (4). You cannot look in more recent stars, like the Sun, for this particular evidence, because it contains elements that were created in an older generation of stars. As such, the composition of new stars will be very different from the composition of stars that existed 7 billion years ago, shortly after the Big Bang. This is just some of the coinciding evidence that the Big Bang contains with current universal truisms. Explanation of P3: The explanation provided by me shows that the Big Bang was naturally caused and a God is not necessary to involve in the theory. Unless my opponent can prove to me that it is beyond 50% chance that God caused the Big Bang voters and my opponent have no other choice than to buy my creation claim. Explanation of C1: See P2 Explanation Of C2: See P3 Explanation of C3: See P3 Conclusion My arguments negate in a number of ways. I have explained the causation of the universe and how it happened WITHOUT a God. I have also shown why it is preferable to buy the fact that the Big Bang created the universe not the creation story. This is because the Big Bang is a sourced and well backed up theory, whilst my opponent has failed to provide anything to make me believe that his method is preferable. Morality is easily explained. there are 2 major explanation for morality: Happiness and the fact that acting immoral is irrational. So the reason that we are moral is so that we can be happy and also because being immoral serves no purpose and this therefore an act of irrationality(8).
