It's a bold and interesting religious theory which makes more sense to me than a god who is either good through worldwide genocide or one that sexually abuses children. It stops a lot of worry and seems the most likely. What are your thoughts on this radical belief?
Things Happen, What The Hell?

what's the theory Peter?
I think it's shit happens! LOL!

oh right.
There are many possibilities.
1) A God who exists, but does not micromanage events in our lives, ie things happen.
2) A God who makes every little thing happen for some reason beyond us.
3) No God, or an absentee God: total cause and effect and random for events.
Is one any better than the other? I don't know but really doubt No.2.
I don't know, I do think sometimes things happen for a reason, but I don't know if that reason is a God, predestiny or what.
Things Happen sounds like the most reasonable theory to me... just not the most instinctive. We seem to instinctively look for agency even when none exists.
They way I see it, religion, heaven and hell is an invention which serves 2 purposes
1 - control people through fear
2 - keep weak minded people who cant cope with the thought of dying being the end sedated

I think you got that right
I got no clue how the universe got started though. I have to wonder if the size and scope of it is so far beyond our comprehension that nobody will every truly know before earth dies
why don't you keep up with the latest scientific understanding?
the origins of the universe are pretty much known now.
but what was there before?:ninja
before the universe?
The best explanation we have so far is M-Theory. Did you not check out the video I posted some time ago? It explains it all.

awesome, there are 5 parts of 10 minutes each. The punch line is in video 5/5.
