Who says nothing caused everything? I sure didn't. Magic still isn't real.
Magic is not real. We agree.
Everything that had ever begun to exist has a cause.
God's Word explains that He is the cause.

Sane? Sounds insane to me, since not one single historic fact stated in Scripture has ever been disproved, not one single scientific fact has ever been disproved and certainly not one spiritual Truth related there has ever been proven in error. Sorry, but one who takes Scripture as purely symbolic doesn't understand Truth. You need to read your Bible more and pray for understanding. Yours is darkened.So many problems come when we try to force a literal historical fact type reading of the bible. It can't be read that way as it makes it silly and not true. The bible is analogy, parable, metaphor and symbolism.
Stuff like Genesis didn't literally happen. They impart a moral. Hence the saying the moral of the story. That is the only sane way to read the bible.

It explains it figuratively not literally though. There is a big difference. Science doesn't dispute a cause. It just doesn't know what it is. It is silent on cause.
What caused the big bang? Science doesn't know. Doesn't even pretend to know.
Interesting, was there a big bang?
There may have been. The big bang theory contends their was. Now whether that was the ultimate beginning is not known.
Matthew 4 describes the temptation of Christ, and Matthew 4:8 describes how Satan took Jesus to the top of an "exceedingly high mountain" and "showed him all the kingdoms of the world".
Under a "plain reading", this would seem to depict a flat earth. Otherwise, why point out that the mountain was "exceedingly high?
That is true since it is just a theory.
I think you arw confusing a tv show with the Big Bang belief system?That is true since it is just a theory.
Oh magic being not real isn't an opinion. It is sane reality. If you have evidence of magic demonstrate it. Otherwise like any other outlandish claims I just scoff. Time to grow up and deal with reality Christianity.
In case you've just joined us, the norm is for people (yes, even scientists) to accept pseudo-scientific beliefs as fact, even though they don't even qualify as a theory. :thumb:One of those is real..... the other is a psuedoscientific belief.

And your scoffing is somehow meant to be important to me?
Nope! The origin of the earth through a Big Bang is THEORY only! Prove it to be scientific fact.
Proof only exists in mathematics. Science deals with evidence. You don't even have a basic understanding of the physics, chemistry or what you are talking about obviously.
Just saying magic isn't rational or good. It is lazy.
Who said anything about magic except for you?
If the holy spirit gives the interpretation and not the individual then where are there so many interpretations?
Also, if it is just a literal fact book there is no interpretation needed. It is to be read like a car manual. Which it obviously is not.
Literalism is a tool to control. Churches that use this tool are cults.
The fundamentalist creation account is filled with nothing but magic. It goes against observable reality. That is bad. It is willful ignorance and worship of magic. Not reality.
You said theory in a way that demonstrates you don't even understand the definition of theory. I am sure people have explained it to you, but you prefer to continue in willful ignorance. That is ok, but it isn't a demonstration of any true faith. It is simply petulance.
Science doesn't deal in proof. Only math deals with proof. Science deals with evidence.
If you have a reason to dispute a particular theory of cosmology go ahead. However, just filling in the parts you are ignorant of with things that a particular branch of science doesn't even say is intellectual dishonesty. If you have to be intellectually dishonest you don't have truth on your side.
The universe is not 6,000 years old and physics is real. Magic is not.
