If a creator or first cause of the universe exists, or existed, > it does not necessarily follow that it also created life. > Life could just be an accidental byproduct. > The aim could have been, say, to produce black holes, or gold. > > Except of course that postulating an intelligent first cause, > is to postulate a preexisting life-form. > So if a creator existed, life already existed, > though I suppose believers would say that the creator > must be a different form of life, > formed of something other than matter, immaterial.-I think He is pure organized energy as an intelligence, not a life form.
