Unintelligent Evolution Debunked in <500 Words
The atheist hypothesis: "Un-intelligence made me intelligent", lacks common sense, is contradicted by testable evidence, is useless for making accurate predictions, and is unsupported by scientific principle, or even Darwin's Origin of Species.
Darwin said: "Have we any right to
assume that the Creator works by intellectual powers like those of man?" (Origin of
Species, p. 188)
1. The scientific process was invented by and depends on
intelligence. Testable, uncontradicted evidence, in diverse areas of life,
confirm that it takes intelligence to make something intelligent or to increase intelligence/knowledge.
"...all physical theories...break
down at the beginning of the universe."
-- Stephen Hawking.
2. Mathematical infinity, singularities, and the "Big
Bang" defy the laws of nature, showing scientifically that super-natural qualities,
like God's infinite nature, can exist.
3. A human creator/designer/lawmaker is not intrinsically detected when
observing their design or their manufacturing process, but is intrinsically present during the design process. Thus, one can't use an undetected Creator to disprove a Creator.
4. All laws or processes, man-made or otherwise, have common meanings: Laws cause physical regularity; Processes are a sequence of actions, functions, etc., towards a goal. Thus, since man is made of "dust" and therefore part of the natural process, human and animal creativity and lawmaking abilities can be tested to determine the origin of the universe.
New hypotheses/proposed laws: a) Something intelligent is caused by
something intelligent, b) Laws are made by an intelligent lawmaker. c) Laws are enforced/maintained by
a law enforcer. d) Processes, systems, and machines have a designer. e) Designers/lawmakers/enforcers are not intrinsically detected when observing their design or manufacturing process, yet are intrinsically present during the design process. f) Designers leave tel-tale signs like assembly instructions and manufactuting proceses. g) The simpler the process, relative to the rational complexity of the outcome, the more intelligent the designer. h) Laws imply a reduction in complexity. Thus, whatever is making/enforcing our laws of nature is more complex than we are.
These testable principles have never been contradicted, apply
universally, and are always useful for making predictions.
Thus, since intelligence, laws, machines, and processes are found in the
universe, and we don't detect a Designer, it is logical and predictable that there is an
intelligent Creator. And a super-natural Creator/Lawmaker/Enforcer would be necessary to limit and maintain
our natural space-time and cause the laws of nature to exist. By definition, random chance
cannot create a single reasonable pattern without intelligently applied limitations/laws.
Conclusion: There is no evidence that a Creator was not
needed to make evolution or natural processes or the laws of nature, etc. Testable evidence and predictions contradict this. Therefore, unintelligent evolution or confidence in atheism
is blind faith with no scientific basis. A plethora of diverse, uncontradicted,
testable evidence, useful for making predictions, demonstrates that God is logical and a super-natural Creator is necessary for the laws of nature and creation of the
universe. The Bible has the only scientifically accurate creation account. We should thank
God for creating us and our universe, and seek to serve Him daily. |
