Hi Jan,
Can you give us an example of anything which occurred or was brought into being -- without an initial cause? There can be no action, no inertia, without a cause. Neither the Big Bang nor Darwinian Evolution can give you that answer. Those scientists have admitted that they have no idea what caused the beginning of our universe and life.
What do you say was the initial cause? We Christians say that the initial cause was God. Can you give a better explanation? Most science only supporters, including the scientists in the different mediums, just say, "We don't know" and then walk away. That is not an answer. That is a cop-out.
True, those who are determined to not believe in God will give that answer. But, what are they afraid of -- that God does exist? And, when one admits that God does, indeed, exist -- then one is accountable to God.
In my opinion, that is the greatest fear of atheists and other non-believers -- having to be accountable to someone other than themselves..
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
