In other words, in something can't be DISproven, you must PROVE it.

== Not much of a challenge ==
What kind of challenge is that? The challenger doesn't even understand the nature of [[God]].{{Bible quote|Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God."|book=Mark|chap=10|verses=27}}
Now [[Jesus]] was talking about salvation, especially in the context of one who clings to "the good life" here on [[Earth]]. But it goes double and triple and tenfold and a thousandfold for an event as all-encompassing as [[creation]].
Here's the real challenge: if [[God]] ''did not'' create everything, then explain to me how it was physically possible for things to "just happen," and in a way that does not multiply guesses. It doesn't even have to be an odds-on favorite; odds less than nineteen to one against would be fine. The trouble is that the odds against things "just happening" are nothing short of [[astronomy|astronomical]], and somethings simply ''could not'' have "just happened" in any amount of time, and other things couldn't have happened because they ''did not have that much time''.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 09:47, 16 June 2008 (EDT)
