In the absence of an indisputable and definitive scientific explanation for the existence of the universe I am of the opinion that there must be a 'creator', or 'creators'. Maybe, when these guys are bored and want to amuse themselves they tune into 'Channel Earth' and watch the crazy antics of the self-destructive human race. By Channel hopping they could chose from an endless selection of programmes ranging from us blowing ourselves to smithereens in the name of some mythical God, or the Rape Channel, the Paedophilia Channel, the Poisoning of the Planet Channel. Their choice would be endless. Side: Possible

Definitely. Whilst I personally do not believe in or worship a God, I do not deny the possibility that one exists. However, if there is a God then it certainly isn't some all-loving, divine entity. Whether or not it's malevolent or just indifferent to human suffering is debatable, but I think these are two very real possibilities. Side: Possible

I think it is one possibility in a realm of infinite or nearly infinite possibility. There are some humans who enjoy the suffering of others so there is a possibility that there is a God. Is it my God? No. But then I was watching a show about multiple universes so I'm kinds riding that fun thought right now. Side: Possible

Then you might also enjoy knowing that there are no multiple universes. Primarily, that's a contradiction to the conservation laws. No one uses the many worlds interpretation any more - try learning the Copenhagen one. Then there's those like me who deny even that. But that's a minority, so far. Side: Possible
I don't really refute. However, I am curious how the multiple worlds conflicts with conservation laws. My main understanding is the conservation of energy. Which I don't necessary see how that contradicts the multiple universe. I don't know enough about this subject to say much. I would appreciate your insight. Side: Not Possible

There is no being more wicked than God is, and also there is no being more benevolent than God is, which contributes to His omnipotence. He chooses to reflect it(benevolent, or wicked) on anyone , and whenever. But even wicked people love their children. Their children are not their enemies that they may hate. So even if God is wicked, why would it be directed towards man; His children? Side: Not Possible
