God Did Not Create the UNIVERSE??

No, they are not purely guesses, and by stating that they are you show that you are clueless when it comes to science. Please, before you reject things like the big bang and evolution, actually do some research. Try your hardest to understand what they are saying. Scientists do not just dream up ideas that seem plausible and stick 'theory' at the end of it. No, a scientific theory is very different from that. For something like evolution and the big bang to make it to the theory status, they must make testable predictions, which are then tested over and over again. It has to be verified through extensive observation, and is supported by many strands of evidence, not just a single foundation (unlike religion, which requires only an old book.) They should not assert certainty, and rather should be open to allowing changes when new facts are discovered. They should also pass the Occam's razor test. Guessing only works in religion, not science.

Hi jupitercrashing. I was actually smiling when I read your comment. Nicely said but do have mercy on the clueless. Although I wouldn't go so far as to say that guessing happens in religion. Not the religion but perhaps the followers.

Thank you astonysh, I am glad you look at it the same way :)

The earth is around 4.5 billion years old. The universe is estimated to be around 13.7 billion years old. I hope you eventually realize that this should not be confusing - it is very clear that the scientific data is correct, and old books full of mythology are not. As for the commandments and teachings making the world a better place, well, history - and the current state of the world - has taught us this is entirely not true. Christians have abused, enslaved, insulted, oppressed, and killed people in the name of god for centuries, on the basis of a theologically defensible reading of the bible. If we were to follow any religion's laws, Jainism beats out Christianity quite easily - Jain patriarch Mahavira said, "Do not injure, abuse, oppress, enslave, insult, torment, torture, or kill any creature or living being." The world would be much better off if people followed that over commandments and teachings that are largely open to interpretation.

That's right. You shouldn't believe everything you see. In fact, you should believe only half what you see and not take hundreds of years of brainwashing for truth. Suppose you were Moslem, would you believe Allah created the world, especially since it's not written in Quran? Would you believe the word of Christian then?
