Ask a baby who gave birth to him/her. Can he/she can tell you? Yet the
Mother knows who gave birth to him/her. And the baby may instinctively
know.
Open to the unknown, the unfathomed. The answer may come without words
to describe with. The essence may linger enough to grasp in a whisper
of sense or a profound ah ha... which can not adequately be verbally
passed on.
We are one and we are created, as is everything. And it wasn't you or
me or any one of us who did it.

1) The existential argument for the creator is merely a restatement of
an old argument: Everything, (ie the natural world) must have been
created, and therefore, there must be a creator.
2) Who created the creator?
3) Subjective evidence is invalid
Answer: The existential argument is quite different because it is
directly linked to a cognitive experience of realizing the existence of
the "self", rather than a cognitive realization of the existence of
the natural world. The subjective validation of the existence of the
self is quite true for the individual and requires no objectively
verifiable (or scientific) evidence. Nor is there any scientific
evidence available for this. This type of subjective evidence is quite
valid. Otherwise we would be able to assert that we do not exist. The
fact that we can make this assertion, however, negates it.
The question of who created the creator is an old rebuttal. The answer
is that this question is not material to the existential argument which
is only concerned with the existence of the self. There can only be
one self in the present moment, so this question has no importance for
the existential argument. Ignore(dash dach dask drdach jeffrey jeff)
