Nature can be beautiful without attributing it to God. Everyone must have seen beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, canyons, etc.
That's what I don't get.. seeing all the earth's wonders and knowing it took millions of years and all these geological processes to create impresses me much more than "some guy" zapping it into existence.
The fact that all of this is beauty was formed through completely random powers of haplenstance is far more impressive to me than someone's imaginary friend creating it.
I find it funny when Christians say that everything is far too complex to have happened at random and it must have been designed by a deity. Bitch, God doesn't know Math.
That excuse of theirs just kicks the can down the road. It's too complex to have formed by itself, yet an even more complex god just happens to exist to create it all? What made him then?
what you don't like the dino-bone-forgeries that ~~god~~ satan must have planted to deceive people into thinking the earth is older than it really is?
Exactly. Anyone who has studied even one course in geology, like I have, will know that. We have seen features that have existed when humans didn’t exist, let alone a civilization. It is incredibly humbling, for instance, to see Himalayas knowing they preexisted the very minds that named them and probably will be around after the civilization that named them ceases to be.
It's also incredibly human centric even though it borrows from humility, like look at this awesome sight this thing that is bigger than me, that was put here for me to experience!
It's also incredibly harmful to see the world as a possession made for you. We are not masters of the earth, we're stewards. It is our home, and we treat it like our slave because we believe it was made for us. We were made by it. We are sustained by it. The same natural processes that have created all the wonders we can behold have cradled our development and nurtured our growth. And like a petulant, entitled child, we demand more.
Skill issue. Learn how to terraform and make weather controlling satellites.
And by me (since we are made in Gods image).
