There is no God?
Wednesday, 15 July 2009
There is no God. All of the wonders around us are accidental. No almighty hand made a thousand million stars. They made themselves. No power keeps them on their steady course. The earth spins itself to keep the oceans from falling off towards the sun. Infants teach themselves to cry when they are hungry or hurt. A small flower invented itself so that we could extract digitalis for sick hearts.
The earth gave itself day and night, tilted itself so that we get seasons. Without the magnetic poles man would be unable to navigate the trackless oceans of water and air, but they just grew there.
How about the sugar thermostat in the pancreas? It maintains a level of sugar in the blood sufficient for energy. Without it, all of us would fall into a coma and die. Why does snow sit on mountain tops waiting for the warm spring sun to melt it at just the right time for the young crops in farms below to drink? A very lovely accident.
The human heart will beat for 70 or 80 years without faltering. How does it get sufficient rest between beats? A kidney will filter poison from the blood, and leave good things alone. How does it know one from the other?
Who gave the human tongue flexibility to form words, and a brain to understand them, but denied it to all other animals? Who showed a womb how to take the love of two persons and keep spliting a tiny ovum until, in time, a baby would have the proper number of fingers, eyes, and ears in the right places, and come into the world when it is strong enough to sustain life?
There is no God?
Ecclesiastes 3:11 He hath made every [thing] beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
Psalms 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully [and] wonderfully made: marvellous [are] thy works; and [that] my soul knoweth right well.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Psalm 14: 1 The fool hath said in his heart, [There is] no God
Believe in evolution? Believe that man comes from evolution of apes ? Only fools can imagine such absurd concepts. The fools embrace evolution because they said in their heart that there is no God. They just don’t want God to exist because they do not want to account to someone who is going to judge them in the future.
For me, I rather believe that my great, great, great grandfather is Adam rather than an ape. The geneaology of man is outlined very clearly in the bible.
