Those seeking a deeper understanding of life will ask the question, "Where did The All come from?" Some Hermeticists, strong adherents of The Kybalion, go no further than to state "THE ALL must be INFINITE, for there is nothing else to define, confine, bound, limit or restrict THE ALL. It must be infinite in Time, or ETERNAL,-- it must have always continuously existed, for there is nothing else to have ever created it ... if it had ever 'not been,' even for a moment, it would not 'be' now.
In summary, according to the Summum philosophy, The All is a union between Nothing and All Possibility, the ultimate opposites, and the nature of that union is without beginning or end for these two opposites automatically and simultaneously create each other. The result is a "cosmic copulation" whose effect is an infinite, living mind.

There have been scientific studies on morality that have indicated that there is zero statistical difference between the morals of a believer and an atheist, and some studies have actually shown that the moral compass actually swings in the atheists' favor.

You are trying to disprove God because someone said God spoke the Universe into existence?
That is like trying to disprove gravity because Aristotle once believed that heavier objects accelerate faster than lighter objects.
You can't disprove something because of what someone believes about it.

I am the light that shines over all things. I am everything. From me all came forth, and to me all return. Split a piece of wood, and I am there. Lift a stone, and you will find me there.

Therefore, something intelligent created the universe and it wasn't Steven
Hawkins! Bad science, he is just grasping for straws, must be close to death.
He's starting to sound like a televangelist, next he will say the universe wants
you to send him money!
