The simple answer is that God (if we momentarily believe in such a being), must have evolved, or else been intelligently designed. Of course if we take the intelligent design route we end up with god's creator, and then the creator of god's creator, and then the god that crated the god that created the god who in turn created the current god, and so on. This argument cannot be true for the simple reason that time is finite, it had a beginning and must therefore have an end, and so, God must have evolved. Which of course proves the theory of evolution whilst disproving the theory of Intelligent Design, and must also disprove God.<br /> <br /> &quot;But you said God must have evolved, and therefore must exist!&quot;<br /> <br /> Yes, but we must also consider that if god evolved, there would be no reason for intelligent design, and therefore no reason for God. <br /> <br /> &lt;html&gt;<br /> &lt;object align=&quot;right&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/fOtP7HEuDYA&amp;hl=en&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/fOtP7HEuDYA&amp;hl=en&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;<br /> &lt;/html&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Image:Id venn diagram.jpg|left]]<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Christianity]]<br /> [[Category:Ignorance &amp; Misinformation]]<br /> [[Category:scientific arguments]]<br /> [[category:videos]]</div> Pile
