God probably does not exist

You declare that there is no such thing as a self existent being. You are simply declaring to be a fact that which you are tasked with trying to defend. And now indeed you must defend the non existence of God because you have absolutely stated it. What is your evidence that a self existent being does not exist? You say there is no such thing as self existent matter. I never claimed there was. Are you suggesting that God is made of matter. I am certainly not. The creator of matter cannot be made of that which He is the ultimate cause. God is a unique order of being. The Universe is finite in time. The distance into the past whether there are other universes or not is finite in the past. The ultimate cause cannot be subject to time. To be the cause of time He must be greater than finite time. If He is not bound by time then He is eternal. If he is eternal then he has no beginning nor ending. You asked who made God? God has no need of a creator. He is eternal and that which is eternal has no need of a beginning. The eternal doesn't need to be given existence nor does it need to be maintained. The eternal is self existent. Hence God is a self existent being. Furthermore I've given you evidence to that end. You have given no evidence for your absolute claim that a self existent being (God) does not exist. You said Hawking described the singularity as containing all the Universes matter. That is simply incorrect. I'm not sure what he was talking about there. All of the Universes subatomic particles then the atoms that were constructed out of the particles were all formed out of the energy of the Big Bang. The process that started making them was the perturbation and cooling period. It started after the subatomic particles with hydrogen then helium then lithium etc. As I said before it's the effect we observe in nuclear fission in reverse. Just as energy can be created from matter E=MC2 so matter can be created from energy. As for your criticisms of the Bible: The Bible doesn't necessarily teach that creation occurred 6,000 to 10,000 years ago. That is one view. There are others. Another is that the days are ages. Mine is that the Genesis account is not a literal telling of creation events in a proper sequence. It is a framework. There is a pattern between the first three days and the last three days that match up. The purpose is to prepare Gods people to face pagans and their false beliefs. The sacking of Tyre I'm going to leave in Wikipedia's capable hands: Ezekiel prophesied the permanent destruction of Tyre. (Ezekiel 26:3"14) Tyre was an island fortress-city with mainland villages along the shore.[51] These mainland settlements were destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar II, but after a 13-year siege from 585"573 BC, the King of Tyre made peace with Nebuchadnezzar, going into exile and leaving the island city itself intact.[52] Alexander the Great used debris from the mainland to build a causeway to the island, entered the city, and plundered the city, sacking it without mercy.[53] Most of the residents were either killed in the battle or sold into slavery.[53][54] It was quickly repopulated by colonists and escaped citizens,[55] and later regained its independence.[56] Tyre did eventually enter a period of decline, being reduced to a small remnant. Echoing Ezekiel's words, historian Philip Myers writes in 1889: The city never recovered from this blow. The site of the once brilliant maritime capital is now "bare as the top of a rock," a place where the few fishermen that still frequent the spot spread their nets to dry.[57] Older sources often refer to the locations as a "fishing village". However, the nearby area grew rapidly in the 20th century. The ruins of a part of ancient Tyre (a protected site) can still be seen on the southern half of the island[58] whereas modern Tyre occupies the northern half and also sprawls across Alexander's causeway and onto the mainland.[59] It is now the fourth largest city in Lebanon[60] with a population of 14,000 people[61] http://en.wikipedia.org... If it were me I wouldn't live in that city for all the gold in fort Knox. I suspect it hasn't got much of a future. I never heard of a drying of the Nile. Perhaps you are referring to the drying of the Euphrates river that will occur during one of the Battles of the end times. It's not surprise it hasn't happened given that it isn't yet the end time.
