Did God create Nature or Did Nature create God

I think the metaphor is that Nature is that part of God which is now fully asleep as to its true nature, whereas Man is half-awake.

Of course they did. No one would believe a man, so it had to be a god that said that. 😉

Nature is everything including god. The Universe was doing quite well before Man and God came into existence

Nature created God in the sense that existence is. Thus God is in, a part of, nature if exists. Nature cannot be created, it just is.

Nature created people, and people created God, therefore nature created God.

Good Answer.

Neither created the other

The concept of God is artificial, and does not exist in nature. God is man-made, not nature made.

God does not exist in nature was my point....God is a man-made concept. I am sure the idea of God has been influenced by nature, mythology proves this time and time again, but the idea of an all powerful, all ruling God is not a natural concept, because nothing in nature supports this.

Mythology is simply man's projections on nature, and not a part of nature itself.

If Nature created God, then Nature would be God.

But if there is a God, I believe its everything, including nature. So in a sense nature is God.

The difficult part is that Nature seems to have its own set of rules and exceptions. It is a mix of chaos and order. Did nature make its own rules, or does Nature have a designer ?

If Nature has a designer, than that designer is God.

Unless Nature has no real rules, and it is simply the human race who imposes our concept of rules on a natural course of patterns.

God is a concept man came up with to make sense of life. I quote "I am like God, and God like me. I am as large as God, He is as small as I. He cannot above me, nor I beneath Him be. Selatius, 17th Century."
