INTELLIGENT DESIGN BIOLOGY

1 . According to Romans 1 :20 , invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature- have been clearly seen , being understood from what has been made , so that men are without excuse

Many scientists insist that there is no God . How , then , do they explain the wonders of creation , including humankind ? They attribute such marvels to evolution , a blind force based on chance . For example evolutionist Stephen Jay Gould wrote : We are here because one odd group of fishes

had a peculiar fin anatomy that could transform into legs for terrestrial creatures . We may yearn for a `higher ' answer - but exists ' Similarly , Richard E . Leakey and Roger Lewin wrote Perhaps the human species is just a ghastly biological blunder ' Even some scientists who praise the beauty and design in nature fail to give credit to God

When learned individuals assert that evolution is a fact , they imply that only the ignorant refuse to believe it . How do many react to such an assertion ? Some years ago , a man well-versed in evolution interviewed people who accepted the theory . He said : I discovered that most believers of evolution are believers because they have been told that all intelligent people are believers ' Yes , when educated individuals express their atheistic views , others are dissuaded from giving God the credit he deserves as the Creator

We see evidence of God in the starry heavens . The heavens are declaring the glory of God ' says Psalm 19 :1 . The heavens ' - the sun , moon , and stars - testify to God 's power and wisdom . The sheer number of stars fills us with awe . And all these heavenly bodies move through space , not aimlessly , but according to precise physical laws (Isaiah 40 :26 ) Is it reasonable to attribute such to blind chance Significantly , many scientists say that the universe had a sudden beginning . Explaining the implications of this , one professor wrote : A universe that eternally existed is much more congenial to an atheistic or agnostic [view] . By the same token , a universe that began seems to demand a first cause for who could imagine such an effect without a sufficient cause

We also see on the earth evidence of God . The psalmist exclaimed : How many your works are , O God ! All of them in wisdom you have made . The earth is full of your productions (Psalm 104 :24 ) God 's productions ' including the animal creation , bespeak his wisdom . As we noted at the outset , the design of living things is such that scientists often seek to mimic it . Consider a few other examples Researchers are studying antlers , with the goal of building stronger helmets they are looking at a species of fly that has acute hearing with a view toward improving hearing aids and they are examining the wing feathers of owls , with the idea of improving stealth airplanes . But try as he will , man cannot truly duplicate the perfect originals found in nature . Notes the...
