What kind of a cause can bring a universe into existence?
It must be transcendent or separate from creation.
It must be immaterial or spirit because it existed before the physical world.
It must be eternal or timeless because it existed before time came into being, physical time at the creation.
It must be powerful given the immensity of the creation event.
It must be smart given the precision of the creation event.
Must be personal because they had to make the decision to create.
Must be creative because look at the beauty of the cosmos.
Must be loving because he crafted such a perfect habitat for us to flourish in.
And the Occam's Razor, which is a scientific principle, tells us it would be just one creator.
That is a description, transcendent, immaterial, powerful.
That is a description of the God of the Bible.
And so he said, wait a minute.
If God created all that there is for him to create a Y chromosome in Mary, supernaturally, would be child's play.
And he overcame that objection he had to the, how could Mary have given birth to a male child without the Y chromosome?
So it was from the seed of Mary as opposed from a male contribution to the genetics of the child.
So God could create genetic code.
He can create the Y chromosome.
That's nothing compared to the creation of the cosmos, which is unbelievable.
So that kind of satisfied for him sort of the possibility that God could have pulled this off.
