No, Dude. You're looking at this from the wrong point of view. Just like folks say, How can God create the world in 6 days? don't realize that God's "days" are not measured the same as man's "days" His day could very well be one spin of the universe. "In the beginning" is the beginning of mankind. Surely God existed before Genesis 1:1, but it was so incredibly long ago, that from man's perspective, it is totally irrelavent to the point He wanted to make: If givien the ability to choose, along with a set of instructions to follow, will we chose to follow those instructions, knowing not to will bring about terrible consequences? For all we know, God is a lab tech, and we are all living in a petri dish. As fungus, does it really matter who God's folks are? The better question to ask is, How can anyone claim to understand and fully accept the mathematical principles concerning infinity, a number no one can ever calculate, but the concept of God is totally ridiculous?   See 21 other replies
