How would you know?

-Removed-The laws of physics has always been there, but not always known. Even today there are laws not yet discovered. A thousand of years ago very few were known, but the laws of physics operated just fine anyway. Same with the ones not yet known today. They operates just fine. And they have done so continuously from the start of our universe.
There are no supernatural laws of physics, that's an oxymoron.

Seriously, when comparing one belief system over another at least go with the
apples and apples comparison. We may as well say once God created the
soup life could have sprung from it, as easy as we can say everything came from
nothing, and once we had something, that something formed into a "primordial
soup" and THEN LIFE. Beyond that it seems many want to start half way though
through a process that they assume they get so they can talk about it all as if
they understand it all.

Think maybe Occam was onto something?
Try to think outside the box. What is described as Christianity by the little graph is only what is visible. Like trying to forge an image of God out of rock or wood or something. You can't "see" God with your eyes, or for that matter, with any of your other physical senses.
The "Church" which is the "Body of Christ" is invisible as well. Each member has within the "Spirit of Christ", and you can't always tell who is lying or telling the truth. In fact, a lot of folks think they're Christians, but they are not.
What passes for Christianity that you can "see" in this world is a corruption of the true "Church". Although, there are many very small local assemblies around the world that you may never "see" where true believers gather together for fellowship.
So, Occam's observations are true, but not about the truth.
Interestingly though, the part about atheism is exactly true as far as I can tell. One dimensional and boring as hell.
