My Resurrection of God

For a while, I believed in God. Then I didn't. Now I sort of do. I remembered a game I learned at a church retreat. The object of the game is to win as many points as possible. Making a long story short, the message of the game is to not be a hater.

I found it random that such a random game popped into my head. Then I remembered that I did learn a good amount of lessons in church. I thought about why that was. It was because a people had a mindset and taught me that mindset and I agreed with it.

What I mean when I say I sort of believe in God is that I believe in him in sort of a probability way. I believe heaven is a place on Earth. Our goal as human beings is to create heaven where we live. I think we would have to reach a level similar to what Michio Kaku describes as a type 2 or 3 civilization. We'd be able to cure death, capable of galactic travel, able to control weather etc. As an angel, we would able to bestow knowledge and compassion upon lower level civilizations. Teaching them the ways of becoming a type 2 or 3 civilization and then having them help create a bigger heaven. I don't understand all the physics and theories that surround the topic of the creation of the universe but here is my logic.

I'm going to believe in the Bing Bang Theory. It is quite a remarkable that something so vast could all fit into a small point. What's even more remarkable is that a out of that small space of stuff all of this was created. The planets, stars and life all came out of that. This brings the idea of perhaps an intelligent designer created all of this. Then one could argue that one didn't. My argument is that if one didn't then where did all that stuff from the Big Bang come from? We would have to go from literally from nothing to something. Matter created out of thin air. I'm not going to say that it happens a lot but if there was no intelligent designer this is what would have had to happen. Now if the universe can pop out of nothing why couldn't a god? Just because there is no intelligent designer in the beginning doesn't mean there can't be one. Who said God had to be first? Perhaps there was a dimension where it was created out of nowhere, I'm talking about the odds of it happening are just absolutely ridiculous to the point where we can comprehend how often this does not happen. In that dimension, maybe they had a big bang too and maybe their stuff happened to form Gods instead of planets. If our big bang can create a galaxies and planets and water and life, why not a God?
