    Sure if you meant idiotic instead of snarky. You didn't realize I was talking about people like you in the previous post eh?

    An.explosion of everything from nothing? No, no, trust us, it's science, we don't know why, or how, or even figured out all the inbetween bits, and our explanations fall apart at different levels of organization, but it absolutely can't be God because WE say it isn't.

    You still don't understand God. The simplest most logical solution that fits with both science and religion, qm and id, is that god is the sum total of awareness in the universe. Everything has differing degrees of awareness, awareness can organize itself in different quantities, and awareness evolves over time.

    It's best not to mix 'philosophy' from the blind with strawman descriptions. Searching the gutter for gold in the dark without a light is never a good thing no matter what somebody else told you.

    Sounds like a win-win to me. There's no avoiding natural selection, it'll bite us in the ass sooner or later.

    It's called free will.

    What really is puzzling is all these science fanbois who constantly throw out strawmen and red herrings about religion but in reality they have no idea what religion is nor do they know anything about the 'solutions' to all the 'problems' their 'great' minds thought of that they think nobody in the past millenia ever thought of.

    No, we just need to understand harmony and self-sustaining systems.

    Near the equator you can easily build a self-sustaining house that maintains itself at about 22c, produces Ice daily for a cold room, water purification, etc... all built by hand with materials found on site. A little bit harder further north, but I could feasibly build one in Canada for 100k, piece of cake with 200k, and that's mainly because I'd have to use things that were not designed for that purpose.

    Seriously think about how stupid it is to place a bunch of bunch of machines that dump heat into a room and then use an air conditioner to remove the heat, and then when you need heat you turn on a heat machine! Total waste.

    Tell me, how many transformers do you think the average household has? How many motors? How many machines to do physical labour for ourselves while we deprive our bodies of the necessary physical labour to maintain health? We live in a society of children and unfortunately the US is the main culprit for the spread of this immature, greedy, selfish, slothful lifestyle. Hopefully one day they will use their huge influence for something good instead of the destruction of nature.
