"ok shimrod, if you insist your belief in something from nothing via no one is not a faith position, you need to show us the evidence, either that it happened, or that it can happen."

As I understand it the current evidence for "something from nothing" comes from a study of the cosmic microwave background radiation (Google it, pete, and then you'll know as much as I know). And something that you seem unable to grasp is that I am not arguing from 'belief' - or much less, a position of 'faith' (perish the thought!) but I am quite happy to go along with the current scientific concensus. This may not be ideal but I don't have a degree in astrophysics.

Oh yes, and here's a thought. A few days ago you described your God as "immaterial" (i.e. having no substance) - so if He created the Universe, why doesn't that count as "something from nothing"?
