Look around at all that God has created. If you did a mathematical equation on the odds of everything being what it is today, it would be beyond human comprehension. The odds of a tornado blow through a junkyard and blow pieces of junk into a complete 747 jumbo jet are probably less.
This "look around" argument is nonsense, Intrepid.
What's here...is what's here.
It can just as easily be an accident as anything else.
The mathematical equation of duplicating it exactly ...may be "beyond human comprehension" (and I suspect it is)...but to take "what's here" as a finished product and say the odds against it happening accidentally is simply misusing logic and math.
You do understand that, don't you? I don't have to explain it in simpler terms, do I?
Frank, I previously replied to your remarks with the one word of nonsense because that is what I think it is. Realizing that this did not give a full reply, I am adding to that comment.
You throw off the "look around" comment easily. Did you give thought to that, or was that just a hysterical comment without form?
If you look around, you will see that very form of life on earth is highly specialized and perfectly adapted to its environment and to its place in life and for the purpose for which it was created.
The cactus in the desert, the eagle in the air, the tiger in the jungle, the whale in the sea, all function perfectly where they are and where God provided that they be. Our orderly, well-planned world, having WATER (practically unknown in the rest of the universe), a well-balanced atmosphere, almost 100 necessary and useful elements, and climactic conditions permitting life on earth, gives us abundant evidence that our world is unique in the universe, and was designed by an all-wise and all-powerful architect for human and animal habitation.
The innumerable and highly complex specialized organs, such as the eye and the ear, the sonar system of bats, the beak of the woodpecker, the tongue of a toad, the trunk of an elephant, the spinerettes of the spider, and mother's breast, are of such a nature that to be useful and functional they had to come into being at once, and could not have developed gradually through chance mutations, random changes," or natural selection. God created everything in it's place.
The medical properties of plants, the healing power of minerals and the food sources from the land and sea are all provided by God.
Yes, Frank....look around. Figure out exactly what the odds of this happening by chance would be. Include everything that interacts with each other and the perfect way that they work.
Yes, Frank as surely as these things are before us....there is a God,
