Question for atheists
 

If some form of the miracles similar to the ones listed in the Bible started frequently today, and you had to set a betting line, what odds would you make that the source of the miracles were Trickster Aliens vs Universe Creator?

Are we studying to be some kind of cosmic bookie?

The answer is obvious: 50/50. I'll let others elaborate.

Since we'd not be witnessing a Universe being created it would be a wild conclusion to reach just because pillars of salt start appearing near Frisco.

I always thought that if there were a universal creator that he may very well be a trickster alien. Indeed, I put the two as close to synonymous. So perhaps it's a matter of definition, but if there is a universal creator, i'd say there is greater than a 50 percent chance that he is a trickster alien.

It would depend too heavily on the specific miracle.

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, Hi ChrisV, I concur. I'm interested in hearing about what miracles we are talking about.

Why would that be important? A trickster alien or a non-benevolent universe creator seem the same thing to me.
