I used to think the fact that I am here as a living
thinking being was proof of a divine creator. How could I (or anything) exist
otherwise? Why is there something rather than nothing?
I am told that God purposely hides away from us so that
we must believe without seeing. If that’s the case, and he wants to test our
faith, then surely the fact that there IS something rather than nothing is the
total opposite of hiding away.
You could argue that science’s advancements such as the theory
of a Universe from nothing could have been designed by God as a test of faith;
tempting people to be atheist on the grounds that there was no apparent need for
a creator.
But why hide yourself by creating a universe that looks
as though it could come into existence entirely naturally and in doing so
remove yourself from the equation?
