How do you know it is a circle? maybe it's a square with a hole in it?

I do entirely - you are attempting to reach for the god of the gaps coupled with the "the water fits the hole in the ground".
Your analogue is weak.
At the moment, you may think that you have posed a problem that nobody has ever asked posed here before. It's not, it's the first one that most creationist try.
I could just tell you why it's wrong, but where is the schooling in that?
The next move is generally the "something couldn't come from nothing".

because you used it in your definition
I'm confused - what definition?
I don't remember offering one.

Because your grammar and spelling is poor and you'd clicked on the button that indicated that it was a reply meant for me.
"you" refers to a singular rather than a group unless a qualification is added.
In addition the correct spelling is "Evolutionist".

OK - let's take this to basics - your point with the house example and the circle is that both are that way because they are the product of a conscious and planned design process?
Right or wrong?

I see what you are getting towards - the universe created itself!

Nothing here has created itself
But that would mean that nothing could exist! EVER! But I know the probability of the universe existing is 1, so that can't be right.
No the universe must have created itself - it's the only logical solution.

no that makes no sense - if the universe did not create itself, then where did it come from?

not at all - how is it not logical that the universe did not provide this information? Was it not likely that the universe created itself
You still fail to provide a more logical explaination.

nice dodge - it's ok just to say "I don't have an answer for you".

Re: So that's what's bothering you bubba?
maybe it created itself - or do you think that everything needs a creator?

Re: So that's what's bothering you bubba?
so everything needs a creator? It's a simple question, why don't you give a simple answer.

Re: So that's what's bothering you bubba?
you are not quite there - you are still making too much of a leap - you still haven't explained why the universe could not be this creator.
