Does God exist

I seek refuge withe Allah (swt) from Satan the Rejected, in the Name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful Dear Brother thanks for excepting this debate, I will now post my arguments as to why I believe God exists inshallah 1. God makes sense of the beginning of the universe There are four possibilities as to how the universe originated 1. The universe is eternal 2. The universe came from nothing 3. The universe created itself 4. The universe had a creator 1. The universe is eternal: This can't be true because in order for the universe to be eternal it must have an infinite past, but infinity can't exist in the material world for example what is infinity minus three? it leads to contradictory answers, therefore the universe can't have an infinite past because history and time can't be infinite this demolishes all theories that the universe is eternal Entropy also proves that the universe can't be eternal because all the energy of the stars would have burned out by now if the universe was eternal Also the Big Bang proves that the universe did have a beginning 14.5 billion years ago and is not eternal People like to use the oscillating model to suggest that the universe goes through an infinite series of big bang and big crunches to disprove this point, but this is irrational The Oscillating Model has problems because again infinity can't exist in the material world, therefore their can't be an infinite number of big bangs and big crunches also dark energy proves that there will be no big crunch and the universe will die in ice also entropy would still effect the oscillating universe and there is no known law of nature that would allow a universe to bounce back after into a big bang after a big crunch The universe can't be eternal 2. The universe came from nothing: This is absurd, something can't come from nothing, if absolute nothingness existed then there would be nothing now, and why don't we see pink elephants popping into existence if it were possible? Also some atheist like to use quantum fluctuations to prove that something can come from nothing, but the quantum vacuum is something not nothing, and it is something that is finite and therefore needs a creator, because I already proved that infinity can't exist in the material world, and since the quantum vacuum is part of the material world it can't be infinite Also virtual particles come in matter and antimatter pairs and annihilate each other after they are created, where is the antimatter and how did the universe not annihilate itself? Also Quantum physics is used by new agers to justify their concept that we are all God, such as quantum entanglement and the double slit experiment, why should we take quantum fluctuations seriously and not quantum entanglement and the double slit experiment? 3. The universe created itself: This is most absurd, can your mother give birth to herself? No therefore the universe couldn't create itself because it would have to exist and not exist at the same time. 4. The universe has a creator: This is the only sound explanation, the creator mus be eternal, so it has no creator so we don't have an infinite regress, it must be immaterial so it can be infinite and it must be intelligent sot it can create the universe. 2. The Argument from Design: The universe is fine tuned for life to exist, if gravity was a little bit stronger or weaker we would not exist. Atheist try to say a multiverse can explain this, but where did all the universes come from? Also there is no proof parallel universes exist in the first place 3. Transcendental Argument: The laws of logic exist (The law of identity, the law of excluded middle, and the law of non contradiction) These laws are immaterial, they are not made up of atoms, and they can't be just concepts made up by people because everyone uses them and everyone uses logic. Atheism or materialism can't account for them but theism can therefore God exists When we use logic we are referring to God's perfect thinking, Alhumdulillah 4. The Moral Argument: Objective Moral Values exist, according to atheism however there is no God and no Final Judgement, we are just animals, so then why is it wrong for me to kill people, I could kill as many people as I want and then kill myself and then get away with it, if there is no God, but Objective Moral Values exist, therefore God exists 5. Biogenesis: We have yet to create life from non life, if we can't do it, it can't be done by itself. A single cell is more complicated than an airplane, but an airplane can't assemble itself, so how could a single cell. Not even Protobionts can create themselves, how did life begin? Evolution can't answer therefore there has to be a being greater than humans who created life, and that is God Alhumdulilla 6. The Quranic Argument: This is my most powerful argument proving that God exists. In the arabic language all forms of literature are either Prose or Poetry, the Quran alone falls into neither category and is a perfect combination of both. The Quran challenges us, "If you are in doubt of what We have revealed to Our messenger, then produce one chapter like it. Call upon all your helpers, besides Allah, if you are truthful" (2:23) To this day no one has met the challenge of the Quran and made a chapter like it that is both Prose and Poetry whoever did try they failed and made a chapter that fell into either Prose or Poetry The following is a list of the people who tried to make a chapter like the Holy Quran Ibn al-Mukaffa' Musaylimah Abu'l-cAla al-Marri Yahya b. al-Hakam al-Ghazal Sayyid cAli Muhammad (Also known as Bab) Ibn al-Rawandi Bassar bin Burd, Sahib Ibn 'Abbad & Abu'l- 'Atahiya They all failed Furthermore the Quran has many scientific miracles in it such as the Big Bang (21:30) and embryology, furthermore there are no contradictions in the Quran The Origin of the universe, The Argument from Design, The Transcendental Argument, Morality, Bio-genesis, and the Holy Quran's challenge, are all proof that God exists I am excited to hear Con's opening arguments and in the Rebuttal section I will inshallah take his arguments apart God Bless inshallah Jazakallah http://www.hamzatzortzis.com... http://www.islamic-awareness.org... http://www.hamzatzortzis.com... http://www.answering-christianity.com... http://www.reasonablefaith.org... http://www.miraclesofthequran.com... http://carm.org...
