Instead of constantly replying with these bloviated (and suitable for an angry and confused teenager) replies, why don't you address what I saidThis is great example of the shallow and predictable response that I mentioned above. No brain cells were exhausted in it's formation.
How telling — that when faced with the crumbling edifice of materialist pretensions, the best rebuttal you can muster is the childish pejorative: “God magic.” This is the language of those who haven’t read, who haven’t studied, and who believe history began with Neil deGrasse Tyson and ends with Reddit.
You parade science like a golden calf, unaware that the very discipline you idolise was birthed in the cradle of Christian metaphysics — men like Grosseteste, Bacon, and Newton sought to understand the cosmos precisely because they believed in a rational Creator. Remove that foundation, and you’re left with intellectual fragments masquerading as certainties — a mechanical cosmos with no mechanic, laws with no lawgiver, reason in a universe allegedly born of chaos.
Your “materialism” cannot account for logic, for being, for beauty, for justice, or even for the consciousness you mock others with. It is a philosophy of subtraction: subtract the soul, subtract meaning, subtract purpose, and call the vacancy “truth.” And yet, when challenged to explain why anything exists rather than nothing — or why the cosmos obeys laws intelligible to the human mind — you shuffle your feet and retreat to memes.
It’s not God that requires “magic” — it’s your worldview. Ex nihilo nihil fit — from nothing, nothing comes. And yet you want us to believe everything came from nothing... for no reason... and that this is somehow “science.”
Filling in (your assumption of) gaps in the "materialist worldview" with God is not science, never will be
