Ok. I know that things cannot appear from nothing but they have to be created by a process of a very long chain of changes which all have a cause. However, given that that chain is not infinite, there must be a first cause, and that first cause of everything is God. The existence of life is another thing that is interesting to me because we know that all systems tend toward disorder and to a state of less energy, which makes life unlikely, and extremely complex forms of life like us even more improbable.

About how I think about Him... I think it's not possible to understand God completely, any more than a Minecraft character can understand the programmer. But I think that as a creator, He loves His creation as we all love what we create. Moreover, I believe that our capacity to create comes from God, and that's especially the case when we create immaterial things that are just the product of expressing our will, as God did with all creation.

You are using god as the variable for "we don't know yet". Everyone knew we were the center of the universe, but then we learned more and you've pushed it out further, but its just we don't know.

As to life and entropy, the SUN is the local energy source powering order. Big picture you are probably right, but don't ignore a star in the neighborhood.
