There’s no evidence for Yahweh and you know it. Paul himself says the Christian message is folly to the Greeks who desire wisdom because it is entirely faith-based, not wisdom-based. You literally believe in something that you have no evidence for.

More thought than this pathetic excuse for a "refutation". You didn't even make a counter point.

I think your intellectual ability and defensive ego-centric behaviour make you the perfect customer for this book. Maybe you should get it.

How dishonest of you. You’ll probably tell me you’re an agnostic or something, but your opinion of the world of ghosts is precisely the world of unchanging, immutable things. Or didn’t you know?

Dawkins argues against all religion. The book title is "Outgrowing God", not "Outgrowing Yahweh". There is nothing immature or unscientific about believing the universe is the product of intent or design. In fact, it's quite insane to believe the alternative. An event which would be the most inconceivable of all unlikely statistical anomalies.

Yes there is, because there is zero evidence to indicate such.

If a creator entity exists, it is by definition more complex than this universe, and therefore less statistically likely to "simply exist" than the universe, especially given how there is nothing to suggest its existence.

That much was obvious from the first sentence you wrote. You're like one of those Vegans. We already knew.

Your condescension genuinely reminds me of 2008 era Atheism. Did I step into a timemachine?

Wrong. God is not a "machine" and does not need to composed of be parts operating under the same rules as the universe. That actually wouldn't even make much sense.

>An event
I don’t believe it was a single event. The universe is eternal and infinite, and likely an enormous fireworks show.
It real really is inane to think a human invention, a personification of himself, created from “nothing” all this. The chances of that are astronomically ridiculously slim. And insane

This is just another yadda yadda language game to dodge the obligation to characterize how your creator entity works. Either a thing can be scrutinized under sufficient reason, or discussing it is so futile that it might as well not exist. And since we have no evidence to believe such unfathomable things exist, we're better off assuming they don't.

Show me a single fireworks show which resulted in the creation of anything coherent, anything at all. Come on, there must have been billions of fireworks set off by now. Where is it?

>The chances of that are astronomically ridiculously slim
See above. Our God doesn't rely on probabilities to exist. Your big bang model does. Oh oh oh no no.
