Now that I think of it, I'm not even agnotisc, nor atheist. I just don't care, at all.

What'd you call it?

Tronga...So you believe that everything was created from nothing? It makes no sense... Dont you think it is more logical to think that everything was created by an entity that is infinite in power?

I don't "believe" in any form of explanation for "creation." Seriously, anything a human says is "how the universe began" is pure conjecture. We can't know how the universe began...who's to say it ever did? The universe could have always existed...for people who believe in a God (who's always existed), it shouldn't be hard to imagine that reality has always existed.

So what do I believe about the origin of existance? I have no convictions. I have no clue. I don't really think about it or puzzle over it, because the answer isn't just going to slap me in the face. There's really no definitive answer available outside of unsupported theological lore.

Maybe it was a Big Bang. Maybe God did his 7 days thing. Maybe Mother Earth and Father Sky really did have a union which spawned reality. Humans don't know. Humans can't know. So why fret over it?

Why would it make more sense? Makes as much sense, really.

And who said it was created from nothing? There are cosmical theories that say time itself was renewed from last universe, and that we are only in a cycle.

I do find that so much more credible than believing someone made us, since time can be slowed and speeded, if space around it is changed. Therefore, compact space, and time is also compacted. Compact it enough, and it is reset.

But what started the cycle? Did it just appear?
