Who made the earth rotate at such a speed that day and night take (approximately) 12 hours each , which is so close to the amount of time of sleep we need per day? Wasn’t it possible that each day would be years long (just like other planets ?)..so who “designed” the speed to be that suitable for us humans ?
:)

Firstly, night is not approximately 12 hours everywhere on earth. In the summer in Artic, there is no night-time, and there is 24 hours daytime.:D On the other hand, in the artic winter, you have 24 hours of darkness. Sleeping time varies amoung species. Plus, sleeping time varies across the human lifespan too. Babies sleep more than adults, for example. In addition, things like sleep evolved as a response to the conditions on earth, and humans are here because humans are adapted to the conditions here.

    also, if you slept all day, you could stay up the nights :):lol: that's how the night shifts work

    How come there are so many kinds of fruits , and all of them come in sizes that are enough to feed a person or a family ? If fruits were just a coincidential outcome of nature , why weren’t at least some of them the size of mountains , or why weren’t they as hard as metals ? Doesn’t it seem that some Being made them the way they are for our own comfort ? :)

    yeah..if humans, by nature, need to sleep at night, then night shifts and nightlife would not exist after all..;)

    there's always a night shift allowance though ..

    Not really! Humans can't eat all kinds of fruit. Only some fruits are edible. Those humans who have necessary adaptations to get the most from available resourses pass their adaptations to next generation, and humans with certain adaptations emerge in effect. Such process was present here from billions of years ago, and humans themselves are products of it.

    and of course, fruits and vegetables were there millions of years before human which sorta invalidates his argument... I guess they were just dying and lying in wait to be devoured by human..

    The sun is 300 times further than the moon , but the moon is 300 times smaller than the sun (these numbers are approximations). That’s why they look the same to us. But what is the chance of randomly chosing a star and a moon , throwing them into a space around earth , and having these ratios ? :)

    As I said before, your argument does not provide a sufficient reason for believing in a particular god such as the Juedo-Christian (and Islamic) God. It is a matter of dispute whether those teleological arguments are sound. However, even if we assume (for the sake of argument) that teleological arguments are sound, then all we have is the necessity of a designer. Teleological arguments (if they are sound) merely demonstrate a designer, not God. So, we may still ask who is the designer? Is it God or a super computer, or is it (as some people believe) Satan?
    Notice that the same teleological arguments can also be used to "prove" that flying spaghetti monster exists.

    we can neither deny or approve the existence of a god, it's just a matter of faith, you either have it or you don't. if you have the faith, I don't see why should anybody feel the need to have the rest of us believing in it too. your faith should be strong enough to hold you to it.
    while we do it, I think all we can do is, agree to disagree and live on in peace.

    i got a question for you too!

    how did the universe begin ? :)

    I don't know, if I knew it, I'd have kicked many central religious figures in the ass haven't I? :)
    and it doesn't matter either. I don't deny your faith, neither do I acknowledge it. the concept of a beginning or an end or the edge of the 'verse is too much for human imagination to grasp, if you think about it, there lies the answer to your question.

    Do satanists equates god with satan:rolleyes:

    I don't really know the exact belief in Satanism. but I suppose they see the will of God upon earth as tyranny, whereas satanism would extend freedom. God speaks of seven sins, seven human emotions like wrath, greed, vanity etc. so, to be satanists is to indulge in them, in other words to be free and human. :) I may be wrong though.

    so satan is this selfish all consuming side of humanity with all the sins where Jesus is all about the sacrifices and giving. being selfless. Christanity and its Ideals are mindblowing in a sense.

    I could be wrong though.

    The term "God" refers to God that is described in the doctrine of monotheism, eh? Doctrine of monotheism is something that is common to Judism, Christianity and Islam. There is no such thing called "christian gods". Christianity is monotheistic..

    we should understand that there is some super power behind all of these things. look at the setup of this universe. we can see its well planned. go out of the house and explore the nature.
