That's the whole point. You don't get to be god if someone(something) else created you.

Whether you put your faith into God (which I have) or you put you faith into science. Either way you win, if you think about it.
Our existence on the planet is simply matter and energy. What happens to the matter and energy that makes you up is pure conjecture on your, or anybody's part.
My initial viewpoint when I turned to God was that I would rather err on the side of caution. If I am right, WOO HOO! Eternal life in an existance far better than now! If I am wrong, WOO HOO! Nothing to worry with anyway.
Now, I look at things in a different view. Living by the word of God... the best I can... allows me to live better than I ever thought possible. I gave Him a chance, and it works.
Lately, everyone is out to brand a person ignorant, or whatever because he has faith in God. The funny part is that the person out doing that is just as ignorant. If not, they would produce definitive proof otherwise.
So, as I said, pick one, just be respectful of the opposing side. Without the respect, even if you are the one that is right, you miss the point of either belief entirely. Meaning that if you chose God, you missed his message. If you chose science, you missed the chance of living a disciplined, socially moral existance. (even if you don't follow God, you still have to answer to society)
Whatever...

That "force" we (those who believe in God, not me) would call God, or at least would reconcile with the concept that is God.Originally posted by: SonnyDaze

Um no.
your entire statement is based on the fact that god is real, which alot of members on this froum disagrees strongly with, myself included
Um no.
The OP said "God or some force". All you read was "God" and automatically took your anti-religious stand. The "some force" part could be some magical force that created what exists today. Maybe it was the Big Bang (some force huh?).
