Dude- I’m beginning to detect some common thread...

Is it just me or do rattlesnakes and oak leaves and snapping turtles seem to have been designed by the same hand?

Or is this just some random interraction of molecules banging around that means abslolutely nothing?

St. Paul argues that “All flesh is not the same flesh”, in support of the idea that men may be changed “in an instant” into a new form of spiritual body. The gist of this is the completely free hand of the Creator, yet here you are marvelling at the hand of the Creator confined to a single materialistic base. Unless you are prepared to explain how our spiritual bodies will be DNA based, I see here, at the very least, a serious departure from the views of St. Paul.

Its actually pretty solid evidence against God manually sculpting each living thing brick by brick. A God of infinite power could easily make every animal completely different anatomically, he would have no reason for redundancy in design. My theory is that God created life in a much more elegant manner: by creating the natural process that resulted in life.

King David; Psalms 139:14 KJV I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

King Solomon: Proverbs 9:10 KJV The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

These men of old, men of great power and wealth, were humbled in their spirit before the God of the universe. We in our day, with our great power and wealth and depth of knowledge from the DNA and the expanse of the universe would be wise to also humble our spirits.
