Where Did Everything Come From?
- Dennis Prager argues the strongest argument for God is asking where everything came from.
- He finds the idea that matter made itself from nothing intellectually absurd.
‘Who Made God?’ Is A Deflection
- The question "Who made God?" is a deflection, not an answer to where matter came from.
- Prager emphasizes God, as conceived, is immaterial and thus not subject to being "made."
God Defined As Eternal Being
- Prager notes that by definition God is eternal: God always was and has no birth.
- If God were made, God would not be God under that definition.
