Read the article referenced above: http://www.physicstoday.org/vol-59/iss-10/p8.html.
I did, so basically, more testing needs to be done?

The latter. There is evidence for the big bang theory but at the moment (and forever?) no way of testing anything regarding multiple universes.

This is certainly no logical evidence for anything. As Kurieuo discusses on "The Watchmaker", design may make sense to those who have accepted God, but nothing in this line of reasoning stands on its own.

Since we are created by God, we will inhibit traits of his design that would also show or express his creativeness, his gift of creativenesss. His creative Gift is therefore natural, so a car therefore must have a designer, it is inevitable, because since we acquire some of God's amazing foundations, we must also inevitably "create". It is the symbol of his design.... that we design. It is part of our natural and spiritual being that we possess this gift given to us by God.
If God didn't create us in his image, we would not be creative beings.

I understand, thanks for the reply.

P.S: this is going to probably be my last post on this forum. I will read-only on this forum from now on. I just don't believe I am educated well enough on some of the subjects here including the many differant categories of the forum. Thanks alot for sharing and answering my questions. There is no doubt I will be lurking on this forum and reading this forum on a daily basis, however, I will no longer be interacting. Thanks again!
