Scientists once thought that whatever the initial conditions of the universe might have been, given enough time and a little luck, eventually intelligent life forms like ourselves would evolve. But instead, during the last fifty years or so, scientists have discovered to their surprise that the existence of intelligent life in this universe depends upon…
Read MoreIs God the Best Explanation for the Origin of the Universe?
I’m convinced that the hypothesis that God exists explains a wide range of the data of human experience. For example, God is the best explanation of the origin of the universe. One of the most remarkable facts about modern physics is that, in contrast to scientists of bygone days, modern science believes that the universe…

We are examining four examples of intelligent design drawn from the website intelligentdesign.org, “The theory of intelligent design holds that certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection. Through the study and analysis of a system’s components, a design theorist is…

What is Intelligent Design? According to the website intelligentdesign.org, “The theory of intelligent design holds that certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection. Through the study and analysis of a system’s components, a design theorist is able to determine whether…
