[QUOTE="Fred's Myth, post: 4849429, member: 55587"] Why is your creator the correct one? Name one creature, just one, that didn’t receive its existence (created) from something that existed prior. Follow any living thing back up the chain until you get to something that wasn’t created. In order for that something to exist, without receiving creation from anywhere else, it logically has to be the source of creation. Since intelligence exists, that Creator must be intelligent. I (we) call that Creator, God. Where did your creator come from? Existence is a gift bestowed by the Creator. He is the Source of existence, not a recipient of it. Why did he create us? Love requires a recipient, also. Why did he choose to put suffering onto us? He allows us to suffer the consequences of our disobedience. Just as a stone leaves ripples on the water, so too does our disobedience. [/QUOTE]
