The scientists checklist

A little note.

This was inspired by a guy out there in internet land who did a "God's Checklist", and proceeded to rip apart Christianity (or at least he thought he was). So I figured using what little knowledge I have of the scientific view of the origin of the universe ,I would pick apart at that.

Just for fun.

I find the scientific arguments easy to pick at, mainly because they have no foundation to start with. What was before the big bang? What happened to start the big bang? On and on I could go. Questions with no answers.


In the beginning...

1) Somewhere, and we don't know where, there is a huge, massive, pile of something. Just sitting there(wherever that is), don't ask. Check

2) Where did this stuff come from? Don't ask. Check.

3) Somehow, this massive pile of something exploded, starting time, gravity and essentially everything. Check

4) How did this thing explode if it started time? Don't ask. Check

5) After billions and billions of years, stuff started to calm down a bit and stars and planets formed. Check

6) On some insignificant planet, many many many random chances happened and life started... spontaneously. The conditions just happened to be right and from no life, comes life. Check

7) So now we have a single celled organism, sitting on this planet, doing what single celled organisms do, and BAM all by itself it decides to self replicate. Interesting. Check

8) Random, chance and mutation change the organism, and make it bigger, and bigger over the generations until it's the size of dinosaurs and whales, instead of just making it more efficient. Check

9) The sun will collapse in on itself, and the universe will do the same, and life has no meaning. It was just an accident, with no significance. Check

10) If I were still an atheist I would have killed myself long ago. Logic brings only one conclusion to this scenario, pointless, meaningless, nothingness. No point, why bother? Check

If my facts are wrong feel free to correct me, I have little actual understanding of the theoretical beginning of the universe. All I know is it makes little logical sense to me.
