Do you like the Beach?
How about alphabet soup?
—————————————
Imagine walking along the beach. Imagine finding a watch in the sand (for younger readers: A watch is something older folks used to tell time before they invented cell phones).
Now, if you pick up the watch, which is the more likely thought a real person will have:
a) “How lovely! By accident, all these atoms and molecules formed gears, electron pathways and liquid crystal displays! And by accident, they mesh together is such a lovely pattern that they keep a regular time!”
or,
b) “Oh! Somebody lost a watch.”
Sure, folks who have a lot to lose if God is real will find all kinds of justifications for choice a). In my humble opinion, however, they do the same kinds of ludicrous mental gymnastics and logistical pretzel-twisting that flat-earthers do to argue that the world isn’t round, or pro-abortionists do to try and say a pre-born child isn’t a human being.
Real people, in the real world, upon finding something as complicated as a watch know it didn’t happen by accident; they assue someone owned it. And, before that, that someone made it.
And when I look at the universe, with it’s immutable laws of physics that will never run down, something infinitely more complicated than a watch, I see that if a watch implies a watchmaker, then a universe implies a universe maker.
I’ll explain the alphabet soup thing next time. My battery’s about to run out on my laptop.
