Assumptions of Monotheism

1. The world is so complicated that it must be created by the God, who is much more complicated than the world but can’t be created.

2. Everything else must be created by the God; therefore, just before the creation there was nothing but the God, which was a perfect isolated system.

3. This isolated system (the God) must spontaneously create another system (the world) without any impacts from outside.

4. Before the creation, if time existed, this isolated system must have evolved in infinitely long time; if time didn’t exist, the status of the God is incomprehensible to human beings and the God must create time when creating the world.

Creationism is not only useless – merely replacing the problem of the origin of the world by the problem of the origin of the God, which is much more complex than the former, but also ridiculous – e.g., the creator can’t be created but the world must be created, though the world is much simpler than the creator. Creationism is a ridiculous and empty box, offering nothing towards understanding the world.

Shielding by “meaningless” arguments is meaningless and helpless, since this “meaningless” assumption is actually the most complicated because nobody can even understand the meaning of the assumption that before creation it is meaningless or “beyond comprehension”. Shunning a problem doesn’t make this problem cease to exist. Specifically, the assumption that the God is infinitely complicated and beyond the comprehension of human beings makes the problem of the origin of the world infinitely complicated, instead of simplifying it as the monotheism claims.
