Snow has a creator? Little beings working in a factory in the sky dropping small drops of ice cold water perhaps?

No, snow is part of the Creation. Snow is created when small ice fragments in clouds stick together and fall to the ground.

Stop being sarcastic, I asked the fella a simple question. Have you seen creation without a creator?
He went ahead to give an example, fulgurite, a byproduct of creation, just like snow, just like goosebumps. Hell even tears are not created.

Have you seen creation without a creator?
No I have not seen "creation" without a "creator". But I have seen things that exist without a creator. And I repeat, a rock.

I see a rock exists, but I cannot honestly say I saw a creator creating rocks. And its process of formation does not include a creator. It would even be dishonest to call a rock, a creation of a creator as rock formation does not require such an external agent to occur.

In effect, I have seen things in existence that have not been created by a creator. A rock.

Honestly bro, I believe you bro, I've never had to admit this but I will; I never saw a creator creating my Honda accord, neither can I honestly say that I saw a creator creating the smoke that emanates from the exhaust pipe.

I fully admit that the exhaust smoke, just like stones or goosebumps do not directly require a creator.

I also agree to a large extent that you might have seen things that have not been directly created by a creator, but what I can strongly suggest is that everything in existence is product of Creation forms. Goosebumps are not directly created, thy are more like by products of creation, just like stones or smoke or snow.

They are all major or minor effects, to which there are causes.

So, in the process of a rock forming, would you say, what caused the formation of the rock is the creator?

I'd rather say its a by product of creation just like the exhaust smoke analogy I just gave.

When we go into details, its an indirect result of creation, and creation always requires a creator.

Listen to what others are saying a bit. True, anything that is created requires a creator. It's not yet agreed that everything that exists is created by a creator.

Work with dalaman to flesh this understanding out please.

I too have not seen a Honda Accord created. But I can find out if it was, how it was, where it was, and who created it, easily. I can, if I am so concerned, even go watch a Honda Accord created by a creator, from scratch.

There does not seem to exist, the evidence for the creator you mention though, or that everything that exists was created.

I think you're better off talking to winner01 though, he's comparing creation of cars and "creation" of oceans even though its obvious they aren't the same thing! Cars are created ex-materia (from preexisting materials like rubber, iron ore etc) while he's implying Oceans are "created" ex-nihilo then conflating the two like they're the same, can winner01 give us anything he has experienced being created ex-nihilo? or maybe something being spoken into existence?
