2. Logic and Chance Existence:
Ok, I will pose some questions to you on the topic of chance existence and logic leading to a belief in chance existence. You may throw this in the trash, but I'd ask you to be read them once at least, perhaps even ponder them a bit.
- Is it logical to believe in a creation without a creator? If so how Or based on what? If science, then do I really know what they say is as solid as they claim or am I just trusting in people who have their own worldviews that drive their opinions?
- Can I say a car has to be created but a giraffe with its irreducible complexity can happen by random processes? How do I justify that call? You may need to study giraffes to get this question. I have a DVD that delves into it a bit that you can have if you want.
- Can I say that it is logical to believe in right and wrong for myself and apply it to others but say that their is no divine source to say what is right or wrong? Doesn't that mean I am wrong to say others (who differ) are wrong, which is a logical contradiction.
- Is it logical to think that information (DNA information or languages for example, which is always orderly, structured, and with a purpose) can happen randomly? What basis do I have to believe that?
- What is chance really? (Even the flip of a coin is not random at all; existing by and being dictated by systems already in place such as gravity, inertia, friction, weight by elemental mass, and imparted trajectory, etc.) Where then is the chance in it really? If what I believe is chance is actually the world running on structured systems how can I still believe that chance allows for the creation of something from nothing logically, as noted above?
All these lead to two basic questions; what am I basing my belief in chance creation on really, given all the above? Does it make logical sense? These are a few questions and may seem like an attack (certainly not intended on my part), but I just wanted to pose something to you that you may appreciate when given thought. Again please don't be a stranger with comments and critiques of this.
