So who created the creator ?

If God can exist without a creator, why not everything else?

So they're saying their god is like a small child with nothing better to do on a snowy day, who will stop caring about you as you melt away into oblivion?
Because I'm not sure that's a very convincing argument in favor of their god.
It seems pretty accurate to the claims, though. Laryngeal nerve comes to mind.
I know it's a joke... buuuut...
I really, really want to send this as a reply to the person who posted this, but she used to work with me and she’s still friends with a bunch of people there. It’s not worth the workplace awkwardness.
I’m not saying you should, but if she gets offended by that then it’s her own problem.
She made a snarky post, you left an equally snarky response. If she can’t handle rational responses, then don’t post irrational claims.
But idk… Maybe she’s a snowflake
It's particularly frustrating that the unreasonable people get to set the level of discourse simply by lacking in self-awareness or tact.
Goddamn I hate the “we can agree to disagree, so long as my side is the culturally acceptable one that we can advocate for in the office, but yours is HR hate speech” attitude so many religious people have
Don't. Don't push your ideology on people even if they do. Be better.
Plus, there is no point in arguing about religion with a religious person, their belief is not rooted in logic and reason, so logic and reason won't change their minds. Just let them be and live your life however you prefer.

God was created by man.
And often with less effort than some snowmen took
There was a religious sect around the 3rd century CE that thought this in a literal sense.
That there was an original spontaneously existing man which in turn brought forth the creator of a copy of the earlier universe to which it was effectively God.
(No, this is not Gnosticism, even though it has similar elements and was at a similar time. In that belief system there's a Monad creator behind everything which created the forms being copied as well as the demiurge.)
It's one of the dumber arguments religious people make.
You realize what is created by a creator by contrasting it with what you see in nature. You know a watch is created, because nothing like it exists in nature nor can it reproduce on its own.
Humans on the other hand are just like any other of the billions of animals. We're not special.
And further to the point, imagine we were created and designed, what a shitty ass designer created us?? Short lifespan, useless at birth, susceptible to all kinds of diseases, weak unless in a group and our pleasure organs are mixed with our waste disposal organs.
If that's not the shittiest design I've ever seen, I don't know what is.
They think all of the billions of other animals were 'intelligently' designed as well. I remember Dawkins or someone had a whole rant on giraffes and the veins in their neck or something like that which makes no sense as an intentional design.
It was the laryngeal nerve. It travels down the neck to the arteries of the heart and back up to the larynx. It's ridiculous if you look at it from a design point of view, but makes perfect sense when viewed through the understanding of evolution.
But, hey, they made sure they didn't forget the built-in combat drugs so we're all much better at being nice to each other and shit ^(/s)
Downvoted because existing sucks
Boomers and their imaginary arguments
It’s easy just move the goal post and turn the apple into an orange and voila look at all these new points I just found
All right. They did evolve by chance, but not by snowflakes. They're part of a long chain reaction that eventually resulted in the evolution of human beings, who then gathered the snowflakes, and shaped them into balls, with sticks for arms and carrots for noses.
Now, how those snow-people are having a conversation is beyond me. As far as I know, inanimate objects don't speak intelligable words of their own volition. Yet. (A.I joke in there somewhere)
Did you ever see a car assemble itself during a tornado? CAN A DOG PRODUCE A NON-DOG?!? Pinecones don’t make elephants!!
