I'm non-religious. I said that "God did it" is answer to why because it is a simplified form of what most Christians will tell you if you ask them why the universe exists. Example:
Evolution:
[b]Why is there a universe?[/b]
I don't know.
[b]How are people as they are today?[/b]
Because there was a need to adapt and evolve to meet our conditions on earth.
Creation:
[b]Why is there a universe?[/b]
God made a universe because he was lonely and wanted a companion made in his likeness to spend eternity with.
[b]How are people as they are today?[/b]
I don't know.
"God did it" is as much an answer to why, as "because Evolution" is to how.

[quote]Evolution: Why is there a universe? I don't know. [/quote] evolution doesnt cover the origin of the universe...
-
And that is why evolution cannot answer the question of why. I have been trying to explain this.
-
science can explain why. just not when you use evolution to try to explain why the universe began. that's like using a ruler to measure the temperature, yiour using the wrong tool.
-
Science can make a reasonable explanation for the universe, yes, but that's not what this thread is about, is it?
-
[quote]Science can make a reasonable explanation for the universe, yes,[/quote]you were just saying it couldnt
-
No, I said evolution can't. If you think that all science consists of evolution then I have some news for you...[spoiler]it doesn't [/spoiler]

He does make a good point and I acknowledge it but I was talking specifically about evolution not science in general.
