The Necessity of Self Existent Being

It never ceases to amaze me! Hypocrisy, gullibility, credulity and ignorance are the hallmark credentials of the disciples of modern naturalistic “science.” I put science in quotes for the simple reason that much of what is being touted as science today is not science at all, it is pseudo science at best or more specifically, unsubstantiated myth dressed up to look like science in order to perpetuate the fantasy of the humanist anti -supernatural agenda. The fact of the matter is that any theory of the origin of the universe that denies the necessity of a pre existent supernatural causal agent is simply nonsense. Contrary to claims that naturalistic materialism is both falsifiable and verifiable through the so called “scientific method” of empirical investigation, the truth is exactly contrary to any such notion. The very foundation of the entire theory of naturalistic materialism is “missing in action!” There is none, nada, nothing; I mean to say literally nothing. The idea being that everything that is came out of nothing for no reason by chance.
It all comes down to four possible choices:
1) The universe is uncaused. This is what we are being asked to believe as “science”. It is nonsense. We know that the universe had a beginning and that whatever has a beginning must be caused by something that is prior to it.
2) The universe is self caused; also nonsense. Nothing can cause itself, it would have to be and not be at the same time. Wrong answer.
3) The universe is self existent: Scientific evidence and philosophical reason both conclude that the universe had a beginning (for example: The Big Bang theory; and the impossibility of the existence of an actually infinite number of things i.e. events in time).
4) The universe was caused by something else that is self existent: This is the only logical possibility both scientifically and philosophically. If there ever was a time when there was absolutely nothing then there could not be something now. The something that is the cause of all else that exists must be uncaused (the impossibility of infinite regress), eternal, self existent (not self caused, but with no beginning), and have the power of creation. Also, by virtue of the laws of cause and effect the cause of what we can observe must be similar by way of analogy to what exists (an effect cannot contain that which is not present in its cause). Therefore, it is the case that the cause of man must be personal, conscious, intelligent and moral in addition to all of the other irreducible complexities of reality.

Until and unless the proponents of anti-supernaturalism cease with their sophomoric rhetoric and the promotion of mythology, and the so called “scientific” community condescends to address these issues of origin seriously, please excuse me if I find it all amazing that people would even listen to any of their wild unsubstantiated speculation and theories. The fundamental law of reality is that nothing comes from nothing, nothing ever could.
