How could a universe come about randomly when a house could not?
The Earth, Planets, Stars, sea and dry land, animals and humans, everything above is so well established perfectly in it's place. Yet people claim 2 cells came together, things happened and here we are. Much research has went into evolution, time and energy, many have strong feelings towards it.
Put simply though, every house has a builder and designer although we just see the house and not the people who built it once it's finished we know that it had an intelligent designer.
So how could a far more complex universe including the intelligent builder of the house come about unless they had been created. We know the house could NEVER build itself so how could our home, the Earth?
Many find it extremely difficult to believe in God because the way the world is, they can't physically see him and because what they have been taught or learned about evolution.
Would you be willing to at least look at the Bible and the prophecy's recorded in it?
If anyone is willing to look I'll post a link after I see some comments.
I look forward to hearing some of your thoughts on this question today, thanks in advance for taking the time to answer.
robert - You seem so sure of your Bible knowledge, would you care to use the scriptures here to back up what you just said?

"If complex organisms ever did evolve from simpler ones, the process took place contrary to the laws of nature, and must have involved what may rightly be termed the miraculous."—*R.E.D. Clark, Victoria Institute (1943), p. 63.

A library with millions of books in it can be arranged in many ways, but you would probably only consider a very small fraction of them 'ordered'. This does not mean that arrangements you consider disorganised are random, nor does it mean that any particular arrangement has been deliberately ordered! Only through the observation of cause and effect do humans determine whether something is ordered or not - and where universes are concerned, it isn't possible to determine the formulation of the universe other than working within the laws of nature. With a nearby house, you can make reasonable assumptions that it was made by a human (if by 'house', you mean a building which is defined as anthropogenic in creation...but if you mean that, then you can say all houses are created by humans without any need for observations and presumptions).

So, the abandoned house is abandoned interior the experience that there is not any-one living there? My first theory would be: a million) Who the hell left 4 hundred quarters on the floor? 2) Is all and sundry else with me? because of fact the home is abandoned, i assume no longer because of effortless reasoning. As to the tip you asked, i'd in all likelihood assume that the extra beneficial danger is that somebody or something deliberately placed all of them face up on the floor. mutually as this is attainable that this even took place randomly, the statistical mathematical danger of it is minuscule. that doesn't propose it could no longer have took place, basically that the probabilities are high small (till you enable a protracted adequate quantity of time that the potential of this would have took place hundreds if no longer hundreds of circumstances on a similar time as a random journey). yet why prepare a similar purpose to the universe? can we've any reason to think of the somebody or something that left the quarters would desire to be defined as "clever" or maybe having a more advantageous functioning techniques ability in any respect? Have we've been given any reason to think of that each and all the regulations that govern the universe are "heads up"? can we assume that each and all the quarters have been left at as quickly as, or over an quite long term? basically because of fact the quarters have been left, would desire to we assume that the somebody or something that left the quarters are nonetheless there? As you reported, the home is abandoned, thereby maximum in all likelihood meaning "no". reward x

Some scientists see the mechanism for creation (evolution) and conclude that God does not exist. This would be like discovering the hammer and nails that a carpenter used to build your house and concluding that there was no builder.
Science has very little to say about (either for or against) the Creator. It can only comment on the Creation.

Our universe is mostly arranged of stars and space-gas, the former of which is really just the latter condensed by gravity to the point of triggering nuclear fusion and thus start spewing off light. Really not that complex. It's only when one looks at life that it gets a bit fuzzy. But really, life is nothing like a house, being self replicating and what not.
Would YOU be willing to at least look at the Bible and it's prophecy. It's really not that impressive when you realize that a good number of the predictions are unfulfilled and in fact can't be fulfilled because they involve peoples and nations that have been dead for thousands of years.
edit: I really shouldn't be spending my time like this but here goes.
In the 26th chapter of Ezekiel, God makes a prophecy of everlasting destruction against the Phoenician city of Tyre. This is to be carried out by Nebuchadnezzar, the tyrant of Babylon.
13 I will put an end to your noisy songs, and the music of your harps will be heard no more. 14 I will make you a bare rock, and you will become a place to spread fishnets. You will never be rebuilt, for I the Lord have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.
And the full chapter lest I be accused of quoting out of context
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekie...
Nebuchadnezzar is now long since dead, and Tyre has been continuosly inhabited from then to now.
Feel free to search for Tyre, Lebanon on google maps. It also goes by the name of Sour or Sur.
Then there is the 5th chapter of Micah which speaks of the coming messiah.
The second verse is quite popular among Christians since it mentions Bethlehem, the purported birthplace of Jesus.
“But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
though you are small among the clans[b] of Judah,
out of you will come for me
one who will be ruler over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,
from ancient times.”
The latter parts of the chapter present some diffculties.
5 And he will be our peace
when the Assyrians invade our land
and march through our fortresses.
We will raise against them seven shepherds,
even eight commanders,
6 who will rule[c] the land of Assyria with the sword,
the land of Nimrod with drawn sword.[d]
He will deliver us from the Assyrians
when they invade our land
and march across our borders.
Jesus never acted as a military commander. Verses like this are exactly why Jews reject Jesus. The messiah was supposed to protect the national sovereignty of Israel but Jesus did no such thing. In fact, he consorted with and befriended the pagan gentiles that had invaded Israel. Most Jews of the time found this to be just plain nasty. Now, the Assyrians are still around but they only number several million and are scattered amongst a plethora of different nations and no longer have national unity. They are an unlikely candidate for invading Israel. And I don't see Jesus coming back to subjugate their nation to eight commanders from Israel. Really wouldn't be much left to rule after the world is obliterated by the seven seals of judgment, seven bowls of wrath and other metaphorical horrors mentioned in revelation.

Who said anything about "randomly"?
Our universe is governed by gravity, magnetism and strong and weak nuclear forces.
It's about as far from random as possible, so what are you babbling about?
I'd even go as far as saying our universe is deterministic.

Because the universe is not a house it is a natural phenomena and all of the evidence points to this.
