"whether or not I misuse word- hypothesis- does not alter the fact that , if you think about it at all, you must believe in self creation, or steady state of some description .
you posit nothing to start with [I presume ] ,I posit God.
despite claims that there is no evidence for him, it is at least logical that if there is a deity/creator , creation follows."

Continued misuse of the words "hypothesis" and "logical". And you're the one doing the "positing". The scientific evidence, so far, points to something like something from nothing - I'm keeping an open mind (but I'm an aganostic - and that's what agnostics do).

I've thought about it, pete, and I find that I don't develop any sort of belief in "self creation" (whatever that is) and I'm not even sure what you mean by "steady state" - let alone believe in it!
