God: Creator. . .or Magician?
For centuries, Christians, Jews, and Muslims have referred to God as "Creator." That may well be true, but in the Bible, most of what God does is less creative, and more magical. Poof! There's the universe. Poof! There's a virgin who gives birth. Poof! Jesus resurrects from the dead. And on and on. This article examines the differences between true creativity and cosmic parlor tricks. No holds barred!! You may be offended, but then again, you may be enlightened.
