I shown not have to post this, but to clarify,I do not post these as signifying concurrence with the web site or all the the sources believe, any more than the apostle Paul was in quoting a truth from a pagan poet, but these serve to provide substance for at least a First Cause, against the premise behind the the faith of atheists.

Which is that an exceedingly vast, systematically ordered, intricate universe, exquisitely finely tuned for corporeal earthly life with its extensive diversity and astounding complexity *, came to be by known (or potentially known), purely natural demonstrable powers, as if it was Divine, without any supreme supernatural intelligence behind the creation, organization and programming. of this universe.

I plan to post more of these, though as with the testimony threads I began to post, I do not have the time and energy or knowledge to respond much at all.

“What turns a mere piece of matter from being mere matter into an animated being? “

Matter is an illusion. We invented the term. All matter is a state of energy.

We never “ touch” matter. Force fields are interacting.

Thanks. Good reference thread.

‘Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.’

Hebrews 11:1

the probability that our Lord Jesus doesn’t exist, is zero.

I am shocked that life evolved to suit the environment that it is in.

Here are three extremely learned fellows discussing Darwin’s theory of evolution. They indicate that science is coming around to intelligent design.

“By Design: Behe, Lennox, and Meyer on the Evidence for a Creator”

They are Michael Behe, John Lennox, and Steven Meyer.

Lennox, the math guy, is my catnip. I watch everything he’s in, on youtube. Here’s one of Lennox with a side of Jordan Peterson:

"life evolved to suit the environment that it is in"

On its face, that's not altogether unreasonable, but it is no longer simply "life" that plays well with others -- it's inanimate matter, energy states, and laws of physics that now are regarded as so well-adjusted to reality that they seem to have "evolved." Would you say that they could do that? Or that everything just by happenstance started out in perfect working order?

Yes, i posted that, but the mystery (not to me) is what does 2,600Ph mean?

‘ I am shocked that life evolved to suit the environment that it is in.’

Weird, huh? Would be a miracle one could believe if it hadn’t.

“ Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.’

Hebrews 11:1

the probability that our Lord Jesus doesn’t exist, is zero.‘

That statement is proven by a Bible verse?

You can’t be serious.

Perfect working order? Explain.
