Think about all the information that we understand exists. About a googol pieces of information. Then imagine all the information that humans have no idea can even exist. That would be about a googol-plex pieces of information that exist that a god would have to memorize before it took into consideration the earth. Especially the political trends of the humans that inhabited it for a very small fraction of its existence. Imagine all the systems and processes that occur due to natural physics in space . Everything from gravtational forces, to the formation of black holes and function of different cells, quarks, and atoms on other planets. Some sort of deity being capable of understanding all that information, storing it, and then using it to make educated decisions/judgments about some organic creatures on earth, is not as probable as the existence of a series of operations and processes that occurred to form organic life. Who, happened to form brains with electro-chemical functions allowing them to think critically about subjects such as deities, and then forming their own opinions which form religions and god-heads. While understanding that simple processes and catalysts create everything, one also recognized that for anything to exist now there must have been something to create it and something to create the something that created the earth. This is means that for anything to exist, there must have always been existence. We humans have seen how natural equilibrium takes hold. Animal eats grass, animal gets eaten by tiger, tiger dies and provides fertilizer for the grass to grow and be eaten again. The world functions through death just as much as birth, for they create each other. Therefor, reincarnation with the complete absence of any deity is most probable. But i suppose bowing down to a flase god is easier than attempting to understanding the concept of infinity. Ignorance is bliss as they say. SaveOk2 Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
