In the beginning it was very hot.

Isn't enough

Something was making it hot.

You have to mention this.

i've actually wondered about that. god can be used as the cause to justify our existence, but what about god's existence? is there a cause for him too? does it just keep going so on and so forth? if every effect has to have a cause behind it, then at what point do we reach the end of all the causes behind all the effects? maybe some circular sorta thing where somehow the effect leads to the cause?

One sure mark of a fool is to dismiss anything that falls outside his experience as impossible

your reproductive organs

>>16147814
the cause is the existence of the radioactive nuclei
>>
>>16149835
that's so le deep
>>
>>16149040
You solve this by saying the universe is (necessary). Everything in the universe has a cause, that does not mean the universe itself needs a cause.

it exists because of your brain, it causes it. it always goes away when your brain goes to shit

for the 5 millionth time, God is the uncaused cause, the prime mover. He wasnt made

Yet you can just as easily replace it with nothing since it is an unnecessary leap in logic.

YEAH? You wanna go bro? Fag. Kys now
>>
>>16151207
this doesnt make any sense, care to elaborate?
>>
>>16151555
Yes, you had to invent some axiom that something can't come from nothing just to argue that something other than nothing is at the origin point when logic is fine with just using nothing and the value of nothing as the absolute origin point.
>>
>>16149040
That image was made by a retard who probably finds William Lane Craig compelling. It drops the PSR down by 50+ IQ points. Read this instead, heathens:

>>
>>16151560
You're the one inventing axioms by saying 'logic says something can come from nothing', you imbecile nincompoop.
>>
>>16151586
No, I am using arithmetic logic axioms rather than inventing my own.
>>
>>16151560
ok name one thing that ever came from nothing then. Are you denying we live in a causal reality? I dont understand your angle here
>>
>>16151597
Yeah it's bollox. Now fuck off and kys retard.
>>
>>16151598
100% comes from a function based on nothing alone via 0!=100%.
>>
>>16151599
I accept your concession, you have to make up your own bullshit and ignore long established systems of logic to make your point.
>>
>>16151602
I got no time for retards so w/e
>>
>>16151606
Long established system of logic, 'nothing can produce something' why? It's widely accepted. Or. I don't answer whys that's not a scientific question. What then? 'what what'? What allows something to come from nothing? 'nothing is allowed....' lots of bullshit in sues. Basically it's just 'it just does ok', and this is long established. You're a fucking faggot you better kys.
>>
>>16151613
That is all you technically have time for since you always have to deal with yourself.
>>
>>16151624
Sure except god, its better something as complicated and convoluted as god be the exception than something as simple and pure as nothing.
>>
>>16151629
In the beginning it was very hot. What this thread implies is that something was making it hot. Not that it was hot for no reason like academic retards assert with long established logic. Goonie.
>>
>>16151638
So its not the beginning, you are just abusing language to make a retarded point?

No, thats the effect.

How do you know "nothing" is even a valid state of existence. There is no nothing anywhere everything is filled with energy, quantum fields, matter, and such things. You can't prove that nothing even exists and so you can't prove that nothing ever comes from nothing.
>>
>>16151875
> There is no nothing anywhere
buddy, this is the point I have made a million times on this board over the last decade
>>
>>16151878
So how can you claim to know how it behaves? How can you say nothing comes from nothing?
>>
>>16151903
Don't reply to nametards, newfag

>>16151907
why you always sniffing my asshole looking for a treat?
>>
>>16151903
I didnt and dont know what you are on about. You just made all this up in your head
>>
>>16151875
I am holding nothing, its an empirical experience anyone can observe, I can see nothing with my own two ears at all times and so can you.
>>
>>16153044
there is nothing between your ears alright
>>
>>16153057
My head is between my two ears, there is nothing between my left ear and my left ear, though.
>>
>>16153063
there are no atoms there? is it just a void eh? perhaps it is an einstein-rosen bridge to another dimension in your bumhole
>>
>>16153097
There is not even a void, there is nothing because my left ear is my left ear with nothing in between itself since it is itself.

Watch the video from the beginning, if you have the time, or maybe even watch the movie.

Anyone can always just arbitrarily assign the cause of anything as unknown, but you can't actually show me any cause for nature, reality, spontaneous processes, random mutation, spontaneous recovery, spontaneous emission, spontaneous decay, etc.
>>
>>16149869
No, you generally have dreams, NDEs and/or hallucinate a conscious experience when your brain goes to shit.
>>
>>16147772
Your pathetic life.

>>16156049
That, like yours, was caused by two tards having a fuck.

You randomly posted this thread without something causing you to do it.
