All humans throughout history have understood or believed that a god created the universe, up till recently
Hence the last sentence
not really, there is actually a tribe in the Amazon with no concept of a god
they have no religion

God has revealed himself to every single human in history
*"According to Everett, the Pirahã have no concept of a supreme spirit or god,[9] and they lost interest in Jesus when they discovered that Everett had never seen him. They require evidence based on personal experience for every claim made.[6] However, they do believe in spirits that can sometimes take on the shape of things in the environment. These spirits can be jaguars, trees, or other visible, tangible things including people.[5](pp112,134–142) Everett reported one incident where the Pirahã said that “Xigagaí, one of the beings that lives above the clouds, was standing on a beach yelling at us, telling us that he would kill us if we go into the jungle.” Everett and his daughter could see nothing and yet the Pirahã insisted that Xigagaí was still on the beach.[5](ppxvi-xvii)"*
ok, well tell god that he forgot a few people
Ironic. They wouldn't believe in the big bang either
Cool people
perhaps not
though unlike god, the big bang has evidence
There's only like 800 of them
"I don't personally expirence it so it's false"
Big bang btfo
my point was that there are people with no concept of a god
thats it
lol
@Riley the Big bang is a retarded theory. It's an event with no named cause
It should
it simply describes the expansion of the unvierse
We see things in the world that vary in degrees of goodness, truth, nobility, etc. For example, well-drawn circles are better than poorly drawn ones, healthy animals are better than sick animals. Moreover, some substances are better than others, since living things are better than non-living things, and animals are better than plants, in testimony of which no one would choose to lose their senses for the sake of having the longevity of a tree. But judging something as being "more" or "less" implies some standard against which it is being judged. For example in a room full of people of varying heights, at least one must be tallest. Therefore, there is something which is best and most true, and most a being, etc. Aquinas then adds the premise: what is most in a genus is the cause of all else in that genus. From this he deduces that there exists some most-good being which causes goodness in all else, and this everyone understands to be God.
I find this to be
Very interesting
Personally
For something to happen you need means @Riley
we know it happened, but we dont know the means
I know lightning happens, but i don't know how
How do you know the big bang wasn't god? It seems like that makes more sense than it just happened
i don't know it wasnt god
i havent ruled that out
however
there isnt evidence for this
Build up of charged particles
@Riley light is observable the big bang is a claim made. I won't believe it just happened by itself
we don't know anything before the planck era
inb4 red shift
redshift does demonstrate an expansion of space, yes
