The case for God is not a case of the God of the gaps
“We don’t know how life came to exist, so let’s just give up and assume that God did it!” Atheists are fond of portraying theism as the God of the gaps, or a means of filling in gaps in current scientific knowledge. But, quite to the contrary, what we currently know about biology leads inexorably to…
The cause of the origin of the universe.

The natural universe (which includes the properties of space, time, matter, and energy) came into being at the cosmological event known as the Big Bang.

And in most cases, the term is applied deceptively, as the savvy consumer with a habit of reading product labels knows. Similarly, many famous atheists are fond of suggesting that our universe…

There is simply no way around this. If evolution is truly mindless and purposeless, why does it favor survival over non-survival? Physicist Amit Goswami writes in his…
