Tony: There is not any kind of evidence to support that other than the sheer vastness of creation. God is a purposeful entity, I can not envision Him creating such vastness for no reason, not when absolutely every particle that we have ever encountered is chocked full of purpose and direction. Nothing exists just to exist, at least not that I have ever heard tale of. Generally, it is a case of us not understanding the reason at the time.-I think Tony's description of why thre is a God of purpose is right on.

They taught, there are rulers over the unseen/immaterial creation and will be rulers over the seen/material creation, but have yet to be manifested from the material world - which is suppose to begin at Christ's return.-I think that church, if you don't mind my intrusion, has invented a lot of fanciful junk. It is much more reasonable to accept the idea that God wanted to create us, alone. Genesis says we have dominion over the Earth. We are life's caretakers. There is nothing else, in my opinion.
