I have decided to worship the God of the Gaps.?

Good afternoon. I have decided to worship the God of the Gaps. When I flush my toilet at work I don't know what happens. I have no curiousity about plumbing. God did it.





When a tree falls in the forrest and no one was there to chop it down, it was God.





I can't explain how the first cell of life started. I don't have a PhD in biology and a lab and several hundres of years of time to run expiriments to figure it out, so, it must be God that started life, since I can't ever recreate it in a lab.





It must be God how can you deny it? Will you worship with me, this God of the gaps,








or will you do what I would do in your shoes and call me an idiot and a moron?

Lovely illustration of the problem with Intelligent Design and it's ilk. If one were to revere a God of the Gaps (GoG), and try to know him/her/it better, would that not ultimately destroy this God. Doesn't that mean that any attempt to know more literally reduces such a God. In a sense, aren't GoGers and scientists both saying (empirical) knowledge is opposed to faith. The difference is the choice to embrace or deny knowledge because of that understanding. For some it may simply be too hard to live without the idea of a necessary creator, for others it may be too difficult to accept just the same idea. For me it's a matter of responsibility to evidence and my own capacities, however I got here.
Reply:I don't let idiots and morons wear my shoes. That would be dumb.
Reply:No, I'm with ya. God lives in my walls. He makes my computer and my lights work. I've heard that science has explained that, but you know those scientists....they're always coming up with ridiculous crap because....uh....well....because they're part of a conspiracy. Yeah, that's it.
Reply:yes, i do think your a moron by this wierd question
Reply:Very sad that you are so ignorant.
Reply:In other words, you assign to God whatever you cannot explain? And how do you worship this god of the gaps? Do you adore him? Do you try to get to know him better? Do you try and find out what previous philosophers and religious figures have written concerning faith? If you can begin to answer these questions, then I would not call you an idiot, a moron, or ignorant. But if you apathetically sit and mock my beliefs, I just might....
Reply:I hate the Gap, you know it doesn't matter how many times you sacrafice to them they still don't give you a discount.
Reply:Hell, I hold a Ph.D., and the number of things I don't know about my discipline outnumber the things that I know by 1000:1.





Maybe I should just pack it in, say "goddidit" and go home.





Don't think I'll get much published in peer-reviewed journals that way, but I can take Behe's lead and avoid scientific review by writing books instead.
Reply:I will do neither. I will defend against your attacks at evolution.
Reply:No, I'll see through the sillyness and call you sarcastic and funny.LOL
Reply:Doesn't sound like a very rewarding life, not thinking for yourself.





I won't call you names, but I'll tire of talking to you rather quickly.
Reply:When I was in London, in the underground station, there was a mysterious booming voice which continually intoned "Mind the gap!" Was that your God?
Reply:Clever: "God of the Gaps"





I will probably use that.
Reply:I would not call you an idiot or a moron, I respect a person too much to do that for doing something they believe in. However, I'd not join you in that belief but I'd let you be you.
Reply:It can't be answered if it's never asked. The fundies are the head of an intellectual "don't ask, don't tell" conspiracy. Once everything in the Universe has been explained by Science and all our questions have been answered, there will be no need for God. Question the Gaps!
Reply:I will call you an idiot and a moron, because you asked for it ;)





And I will ask you.... what about the great and terrible Flying Spaghetti Monster??
