Designed by a designer

I was thinking today about how the “church” has been maligned for the way that it dealt with new ideas. Like when Copernicus posed the theory that the earth revolved around the sun and not the sun around the earth. that idea messed with current accepted theology and so all manner of manipulation was tried by the church to keep this idea from spreading. The problem was that the leadership then would rather start with the theology and then select the facts that supported that theology instead of asking the question, which one is in the center, the sun or the earth? and then compiling the facts and let the truth decide.

I think that evolutionists are starting to act like the church. They start with the theory that man evolved from primitive life and select the facts that support the theory instead of just asking the question, Where did mankind come from? And then look at the evidence.

To think that time and accidents will create anything is hardly plausible. Look at the natural world. If that theory worked then it would only take a few tornadoes tearing through a lumberyard to build a house. According to evolution it may take a few billion tornadoes but eventually the result would be a house. Maybe. But where did the lumber yard come from? Evolutionist say that there was nothing and then bang, there was everything. Without cause and without design or supply.

My sister is a potter. If she plopped a blob of clay on a wheel and started spinning after million of years she would still have a blob of clay and that only if someone were constantly whetting it. There has to be a cause and a designer for her clay to change form from a blob to anything else. She is the potter and her clay becomes beautiful art in her hands because she touched it, she, the designer formed it. To change something of chaos into something of order It always takes cause. It always takes a designer.

I’m no expert so don’t try to argue your case. just Try this. Buy all the material to make anything that you choose. A cake, a bird house, a car, whatever. Leave it loosely piled anywhere. Now wait for time and chance. Come back in a billion years. Will that pile have gotten better or worse? Less chaotic or more chaotic? Does the universe tend to go from chaos to order or order to chaos. This example isn’t even fair because it implies an order to the pieces and that everything was there to make whatever you had in mind to make. Evolution says that everything that is required to create life evolved itself from nothing and then found its way to a central place where all of the conditions necessary were conveniently provided by no one for no reason from nothing with no plan or design and life formed and this life kept getting more and more complex, chaos to order, simple order to more complex order with no outside interference over and over again until chemicals became compounds became life forms became..became..etc. became man. And that man said “I got here by complete cosmic accident”. Wow.

There’s a very old book that purports to tell a different story. In the story a benevolent all powerful being had a design in mind and he spoke, and chaos and vacuum began to take shape and have order and substance. He created light first, then he created everything else. The elements were at this beings command. He created, not something into something different but from nothing into his design. And he said it was good.

I believe this story because it gives me a starting point and explains how and why there is a design and order to the universe.
