Question: Put down the text books and give me YOUR thoughts, please!?
1!. Energy and gravity seem to have an omnipresence about them!. Where did energy and gravity come from!?
2!. Where did omnipresence come from!?
3!. If you trace a time line backward do you not come to a single point of origin!?
4!. Who or what is responsible for the point of origin for everything!?
Note: Where did God come from (!?) is not a valid question for argument because we know the answer to that argument is that God didn't come from anything or anywhere!. God is, always has been, and always will be!.
Faith is not proof, it's just a reasonable certainty given all the evidence!.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
1!. I think this question is better answered by physics or astronomy!. Most likely, in my opinion, energy has always existed in one form or another, so it didn't "come" from anywhere!. Since gravity is, I think, a property of matter, and matter and energy are the same, the same answer would apply to gravity too!.
2!. I don't think this is a meaningful question!. Where did the quality of being everywhere come from!? seems, to me, a confused question!. Just because "omnipresence" can be made the subject of a sentence is no reason to believe it has an independent physical existence, which is how your question treats it!.
3!. There is no reason at all to assume this!. We could just as easily assume that if you trace time backward you keep going forever, never arriving at a point of origin!. For many reasons (like the fact that, without time, there could be no temporal progression, and hence no way for time to "get started") the assumption that time just always existed, and so there was no point of origin, seems better!.
4!. This also seems to be a confused question!. There is no reason to assume that somebody or something would be responsible!. Given the fact that you state that point is the point of origin for everything, it seems actually contradictory to ask for something responsible for it (a point of origin for the point of origin for everything, if you will!.)
I also don't see how a self-proclaimed agnostic could say we "know" God didn't come from anywhere or anything and God always has been and always will be!. Theist, sure!. But that does not seem to be an agnostic statement!.
As for the final sentence, maybe, maybe not, but you need to present some sort of evidence if you want to convince us that evidence supports faith!. Given all what evidence!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
valid questions, that i probably could answer if i was fully awake!.
i also agree with your argument about god!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Wow!! One day you will be so embarrassed that you asked those very infantile questions!. You have tried to abuse the only person who I saw that gave you anything even approaching a good answer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Based on your question, my belief is that you may have way too much time on your hands!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
I couldn't have said it better, and that's my opinion, not taken from a text book :-)Www@QuestionHome@Com
God whether real or not is man created!. That is not deniable as his 'existence' was taught by Jesus and his disciples!.
I guess religion can answer everything and you can always explain everything with it!. eg 'God creates omnipresence' etc!.
Science and scientists could be allusioned and therefore could be just as valid as religion!. Both are man created or man discovered!. It doesn't make either real if you think about it!.
Your questions sound very sciency which isn't my strong point so I can not give you an answer based on science for those questions!.
However philosophically thinking!. I think the answer to all 3 for me is 'It just happened' It is just a starting point for life but a bad one!. Maybe like writing a really good story but which has a rubbish beginning because you didn't know how to start it!.
But then who wrote this story with a rubbish beginning!? Wow this is getting really deep so I will leave you with a quote!.
"I know that I am intelligent, because I know that I know nothing!."
