This might be my most controversial post yet but I have to give my opinion on it and you can too. I am going to list some arguments that religious or just believers put forward.

1. How would have this universe appeared out of nowhere, God created this universe
   
2. God existed even before this universe's creation and he is the ultimate being.
   

My arguments:

Let me start by stating that everything my opinion is very scientifical as I believe that science provides a more compelling argument in this case.

Hello there!... I will skip the rest of your post (because it doesn't prove nor disapprove anything) and just focus on the quote above.

... Indeed, the topic related to your question may seem controversial because it has a fate-related basis... SCIENCE has nothing to do with it. Arguments can be formulated one way or the other depending on whose speaking among the Scientists crowd.

What gives the impression that Scientists are overwhelmingly atheist to the general public is that there is a code of conduct in Academia that discourages any public statements on matters of faith among Scientists especially when at the pinnacle of their carrier. Those who does are immediately ridicules, marginalized and terminated one way or the other.

This attitude has a historical reason in the Western word... meaning the Church oppression of Scientific thought before and during the era of Galileo.

As a scientist (in the Neurosciences field), I've always stated the obvious question that any sane Biologists has in mind pertaining to the origin of the first Cell; how the first Cell came into being ? and why can't we create one in the Lab ?...

People outside the field tend to think that given enough time and with a bit Luck and a good souce of the right "material"/STUFF... it should be a piecs of cacke........ Well, it's not and with all the right ingrediants in the Lab and more than 50 years now... and we stil can't get a single damn cell of our own.

Life brings life that's the rule since THAT FIRST ORIGINAL CELL.... so, where did the first one come from?....

You see, I didn't answer your question directly, but if you got a convincing answer to this one, then your thread won't be controversial any more.

Science can't answer the question if "God exists or not", it's beyound its means, meaning its methodology (i.e. the way it works.) But scientists can harness/infer a (gut-fealing) response to that ultimate question when digging deep in their respective fields. Yes, I know, even in Biology we have some outspoken Atheists but (as far as I'm concerned) they speak for themselves not in the name of SCIENCE.



PS: Opinions can't be "scientific" (they are mostly claims, theories etc... ); But Facts ARE.
