Is It Ignorant To Not Believe In Some Sort Of Creator?

It didn't come from 'nothing', but no one knows how it came to be or why it exists.

It is only 'ignorant' to not look for answers to those questions.​

I do :smugbundy:

I'm not sure, but I know we're looking at it with a very limited perspective and I'd never be able to prove it without going 'outside' of the Universe. I'll let the astrophysicists figure it out.
​

I've been rolling with the fractal theory for a while and I like it. Electrons around nuclei. Moons around planets. Planets around stars. Solar systems around galaxy cores / black holes... and so on. I don't see why the universe couldn't be orbiting some massive object that we can't conceive.

But at the same damn time, seeing that there is unlimited possibility, i always believed that a creator would exist in a higher dimension than ours. I mean, considering some of the traits people give god, omnipotence, immortality, all knowledge... these all sound like things that are just one dimension above our three spaces + time

we're NEVER gonna know the answers to these questions. NEVER.

it's turtles all the way down

what's funny is God is just as unprovable and requires as much faith as Fractals to buy into.

WE WILL NEVER be able to empirically prove any of that theory...eva, eva, eva ,eva.

fractals are just math, and require no faith. saying they describe the universe is another story...

I hate when people don't know how to use the word "ignorant" correctly.

But to test your point, something has always been here whether you believe in a creator or the big bang, god or a singularity. Both of them existed with time not affecting them.

how can something exist outside of time? I think our language breaks down at that point

 

[TheDream]

no one creates the creator.

he is called the creator for a reason

Who created the creator's creator? How can you say something can't come from nothing and then go ahead and say nothing created the creator.

Why not just skip that step altogether and say the universe was always here.

the creator is the Alpha & the Omega

 

[TheDream]

the creator is the Alpha & the Omega

Claiming that there is a creator doesn't even answer your original question. Which is how did something come from nothing.

It's kinda like the Chicken or Egg thing to me

correct my bad.
Saying fractals describe the universe requires faith.

To theists, the 'Creator' is 'uncreated', not 'created from nothing'. To put this in mathematical terms: The category of the 'uncreated' is not empty.
