I'm not talking about religions, I'm talking about the notion that
there isn't some sort of creator or force that created the universe,
universes, or dimensions, and other things we still may not have
imagined. Even scientists must have a hard time believing all their
scientific objects and forces just came out of the blue. More
scientists believe in the kind of god I have just described but don't
believe in the god's described by the various religions that are
practiced by people, and the scientists that don't believe in a god
are in the minority. Some publish books about there being no god.
Probably because they will create interest and sell books. If they
really believe in their theories then their scientific kind of
thinking is getting the best of them. Or I think they are just simply
bad scientists :)
