Well I don't know about telling God something funny but once or twice He has shared a joke with me. :)

"God would not care for the evil in the world" does not mean "If evil exists in the world, then surely, it is God's doing. Why should he not be blamed for it?" It means "if there was a God, He would not accept responsibility" or "those who follow God refuse to attribute evil to Him". The line...

Quantum fluctuation, is just pushing the problem a little further away. What triggered the fluctuations? This path leads to infinite regress.

It's kinda like suspended animation according to my understanding of the Quran. Without a body the soul can't interact with reality, so it can't experience the passing of time.

that gave me a headache. It's to give direction but... it means to have direction so the purpose of giving direction is having direction... doesn't seem like a satisfying answer. Though in a way it has an infinite ring to it.

Everything is subject to interpretation. Everything we experience is our interpretation of reality. Some are just more accurate interpretations than others.

What about God?

When you say something "must" be the case it tends to indicate it is the position you have taken. Even if at the moment there are no other possibilities, you are making a prediction in that it will remain so. Something eternal does not arise. If you accept that the big bang was the beginning...

Well, you are pretty old, you could just scroll up of course. :D So because fairy tales contain lessons(what doesn't?) they are a type of evidence?

The problem I have with your definition of perfect is that when something is perfect you cannot improve upon it. I think everyone can improve upon themselves, most situations can be improved which makes them imperfect.. no?

So it seems a rock has many purposes, none of which is being a rock?

Sorry to hear what you went through mate, I can kinda relate, I've only seen 2 dead bodies but I was under 8 when I saw them, both stab victims(separate incidences). I also would really enjoy debating people with opposing views, was good at it and a dick about it, only difference is I was on the...

There isn't too many of us, it's just that we are too wasteful with what we have.

That's one way to throw up on a teacher without getting in trouble.

Quran 40:45 - Certainly the creation of the heavens and earth is greater than the creation of men; but most men know it not. I could argue the fact that of all Gods creations on Earth the fact that we are the only ones that can destroy it places us pretty high on the list of creations. Stupid...

Before science accepts yes, but it seems you have already accepted. This - "The future generations will probably conclude that "Goddidit". :p" was a(not very good) joke. This - "There must be an 'absolute nothing'" - is a prediction.

Is a rocks purpose to be a rock or a foundation?

I did not suggest otherwise. You did however make comments about God and those who believe in Him. You claimed that religious peoples/religions views of God is that only good is ascribed to him while evil is ignored(at least that is how I understood your comment, my apologies if this is not the...
