My Problem With the "God Did It" Explanation for the Existence of the Universe

All in the same post!
I don't think this is a good answer. First off, it's not responsive to the question: MSizer's point had nothing to do with the fact that human knowledge is limited; it had to do with taking a general principle (or something that's asserted as a general principle, anyhow) and asking what its logical implications would be.
Second, your response is internally contradictory. If God is beyond comprehension, then any claims you make about God (e.g. that he exists) are baseless.
I agree that there are probably many things in the universe that are beyond the limits of human knowledge. However, we don't know anything about any of them. We don't even know what they are.

"I am" does nothing but give warm fuzzies to those who need/want them.

GOD is different from the creation because he is the creator so GOD can't be like any thing we know.....

Now you are merely talking in nonsense circles.
Honestly, I am disappointed.
I thought it would take longer before you were reduced to nonsensical circles.

Aymen, you're going in circles and you haven't provided anything yet that has stood up against even simple logic. This post is no different than the one you made at the beginning, which we already exposed as hollow (by several of us no less).
This is like a game of tennis, and every time I hit the ball back, you run and move the net.

well there is nothing i can do .... if i bring a scientific fact from the Quran your gonna find a way to reject it or go around it because you don't believe that the QURAN is 1400 YEARS OLD

Fact is you CANNOT bring scientific FACT from the Koran.
The Koran does not have any scientific fact.
Hopefully you will not try to demonstrate your efficiency in the Forer Effect here in this thread.
I mean, this line of "reasoning" has been repeatedly refuted in numerous other threads.

1. The Quran is not a science book, it is a mythology book.
2. Doesn't make any difference if the book is 1400 years old or not, it's not like that is old enough to witness the creation of the universe and attest to it.

Nor is anything you have posted thus far in this thread.

Exactly how? My ferrets move in a sporadic chaotic fashion. There are things surely in the universe which we don't know about, therefore how do you claim to know they move in circles. And even if I granted you that, how does this in any way argue that God even exists let alone created it all? I'm disappointed in this thread. We're only getting answers like Mestemia pointed out, "purple".
By the way, if you remember that little force called gravity, it does a pretty good job of explaining things moving in circles. what a disapointment this has been.

On the contrary.....
Or perhaps you would to see again....cause and effect...at length.
I think we've done this under a different thread topic.
You didn't do well then.
It won't be any easier for you now.

Of course I believe the Koran is (roughly) 1400 years old. Which is exactly why it contains no science.
