[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The idea of God simply doesn't resonate with me--and it never has, for whatever reason.

The thing I particularly can't wrap my brain around is why anyone would choose to worship a God who would choose to cause so much suffering to those who very clearly have done nothing wrong. If there is someone up there deciding that a baby should die after living only days, for example, then I think he's not worthy of my adulation.

I also think the idea of God was created to make people feel better. It's really sucky to think a baby would die for no reason, or that when your husband dies you'll never see him again. [b]Humans are designed[/b] to find meaning in things. Hence, God.[/quote]

This is the PP you are replying to. To me, evolution IS the design, not the designer. It's like saying the assembly line designed products to be like such and such. Someone designed the assembly line for inputs to go in and products to come out of it the way their design intended. [/quote]
You are saying that the mere existence of something (the assembly line) is a proof that a someone (God) must have designed it. Do you want to be consistent and go one step further and say that the mere existence of the designer implies that someone designed the designer? We can agree that a designer is much harder to design than an assembly line. What if God herself must answer to their creator?
