So atheist's believe it is simpler for the universe to create itself?

my point was, and probably poorly thought out in the pool of intellectual scientific giants who post on this site, when you are dealing with billions of years which most of me can't comprehend versus the short lifespan of the common man, how does proving God cannot exist improve my life in any way? Especially since I rely on Him just to get me through the day?
yeah whatever.
The point being....
That which makes you happy does not always make you right. Right?

the thought of an eternal universe with no beginning and no end is not really inconsistent with old biblical teaching about God

Tis the season
Santa Clause made me happy
Happy Holidays to you and yours (even though none of it is true)

It's not inconsistent with a variety of teachings. Which of those teachings one chooses to embrace is a matter of personal choice, not of which represents universal truth.

you're just constantly pissed off because a lot of Christians vote republican, and that messes up your deal

it has nothing to do with "universal truth"

for crying out loud, it is the Christmas Season, even a grumpy old democrat like you probably enjoyed Santa Clause coming down the chimney, get your head out of the political gutter

and I haven't yet gotten my snarky Christmas Card reply from you, have you forgotten?

after the New Year we will talk about coincidence vs divine intervention

as a trader, I'm all for coincidence, but I just can't understand how anybody who has made so many bad decisions in life than I have can be so happy without some kind of devine intervention

I sleep just fine, but I wake up with so many bad memories, all my memories are bad, the only thing that helps is meditating on God

and that is why I don't like people proving He doesn't exist

fine for most, but I need Him

All the irrelevant ranting aside, atheists couldn't care less what you believe or don't believe or need or don't need. What they do care about is having some other group's beliefs imposed on them without their consent.

Only 7 more shopping days until Saturnalia.

well, I'm all for freedom, and if you need me to fight for somebody on your side, you can count on me

I think you may be a little mistaken as to how powerful we are

who in their right mind still believes God exists?

only a few MIT professors are now saying it may be necessary for a God to keep the universe going
 
if you are a God fearing born again Christian, the first thing you teach your children is "Don't believe anything they teach you in school, especially if it is written in a textbook.'

if you are a democrat, you still believe in THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

what was that guy's name?...Orwell

Don't forget about the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

and the DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
