Well, here are my thoughts:
The universe must have been created because it is impossible for it to
be eternal. Our sun, for example, is using up all of its energy and
will one day ?die? (although it never was alive). In order for
something to run out it must have had a beginning because no matter how
slow the process is it would have ?died? long ago because eternity has
an infinite time before and after (it must be after if it is also
before). All of the matter in our universe would have always had to
have been here (aside from creation) according to the law of
conservation of mass and energy. But somewhere along the way it would
have had to sporadically form the sun and many other stars according to
evolution.
Life can die but life cannot come from death (aside from supernatural
powers). In order for the first cell to evolve it would need a cell
wall, the ability to grow, the ability to process ?food? to create
energy, and the ability to split and reproduce. How would random atoms
and molecules bond together to form something as complex as this and
have the intelligence to know to split? It is pretty much impossible.
Even if the cell manages to reproduce and create many cells, how are
coherent thoughts developed? Matter cannot think. It can feel because
of nerves and interpret that into pain and maybe pleasure. But matter
cannot have emotions; it can not love nor hate. Neither can matter
puzzle about whether creationism or evolution is true. Therefore,
there must be other forces and existences separate from the world of
matter, namely souls or spirits. These spirits can effect what matter
does. We control our bodies by thoughts in our spirits communicated
into the brain and then to the rest of our body. It is possible for a
soul to be eternal. If they exist why could there not also be an all
powerful one able to create the universe? This would avoid having to
explain all the nigh impossibilities such as cells forming and the
formation of stars. The reason we like to believe the nigh
impossibilities over this logic is because we are afraid to admit there
is one so powerful out there (and so much more powerful than us and our
personal spirits). Unless we become convinced that this almighty
spirit, God, is out for our good, our hearts will suppress the
knowledge of him. We are trapped in this suppression by our scared
souls and the devil and we don?t even know it. The only way we can
escape is if this God liberates us. This is a second proof of his
goodness along with his amazing creation that continually entertains
and enthralls us with new discoveries of its intricacies and workings.
