COSMOLOGICAL DESIGN CONSIDERED Proof of Divine Design, not "Random Accident"

Cosmos: ...a cosmos is an orderly or harmonious system. It originates from a Greek term meaning "order, orderly arrangements, ornaments," and is the opposite of chaos. Today the word is generally used as a synonym of the word "universe." (Wikipedia). The Laws of Thermodynamics

We know by reading the Bible, that God is the Creator of man and we did not arrive on earth by the process of evolution. Science confirms that things get into chaos, rather than improve when left to themselves. This is an important point! Things do not get better and better through natural selection; but, rather deteriorate when left to themselves. This is proven through Science, itself, by the Second Law of Thermodynamics. The First Law of Thermo-dynamics deals with heat transfer, the Third Law relates to the behavior of chemical substances at low temperatures. The Second Law deals with Entropy (heat loss) and establishes this truth, that things left to themselves will certainly not develop into a higher state of complexity; but will tend to decay and degenerate into more randomness.

Fred Kohler, an ardent evolutionist, is honest enough to admit that evolution has hit a dead end street. Mr. Kohler says: "One of the most fundamental maxims of the physical sciences is the trend toward greater randomness the fact that, on the average, things will get into disorder rather than into order if left to themselves. This is essentially the statement that is embodied in the Second Law of Thermodynamics." (Evolution and Human Destiny, pp. 14-15). Therefore, the evolutionist does not even believe his own established scientific laws and he wants me to believe his philosophy instead of God! God knows them well and describes them as such, "A double minded man is unstable in all his ways." James 1:5.

What would happen to a crop of corn, oats, rye, wheat, or soy beans if left to itself, with God not sending the rain and the farmer not cultivating, fertilizing or controlling the weeds? The crop wouldn't amount to anything. Why do grape growers have to prune their vineyards? If they didn't, it wouldn't be long before the vines would be producing tiny grapes the size of peas and worth nothing!

Some time back, I was witnessing to a college professor who was an evolutionist. I asked him if he was familiar with the Second Law of Thermodynamics. He acknowledged that he was. I asked him to tell me how his daughter would turn out if he shut her in her room, never allowed her to play with other children, never sent her to school, and never talked with her. What would be the result in ten years? His answer was "A jabbering idiot." My reply to him was, "If evolution were true, since she would inherit the genes of her father, a college professor, and her mother, a high school teacher, she should evolve into a super-genius as a young lady without any help from anyone." I shall never forget what he told me. His words were, "How can a man of my education (meaning me) be so intelligent, and yet void of any common sense and so foolish?"
Further, I must ask, if we evolved from animals to man, why did we not inherit a sense of smell equal to that of a bear, fox, or wolf? Why didn't we inherit the eyesight of an eagle? Such characteristics make great science-fiction films when attributed to humans; but, such is not a reality. When certain reptiles lose their tails through predatory attack, they can grow new ones. Why did not man inherit such a characteristic that he might grow a new finger, arm, or leg should one be severed? No, evolution is based, "upon belief in the reality of the unseen; belief in the fossils that cannot be produced; belief in the embryological evidence that does not exist; and belief in breeding experiments that refuse to come off."

God speaks in Psalms 53:1,

"The FOOL hath said in his heart, there is no God." He also says "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction." (Proverbs 1:7.) Of all the hypotheses as to how our earth and the universe came into being, there is no proof to be found contrary to the Bible. You may take offense at this, but the next time you hear a proposal contrary to the Bible, demand proof! The person may give you a lot of "double-talk"...try to insult your intelligence and laugh you to shame, BUT there still is no proof to be presented. So, really, who is the fool?

"Thus saith the Lord, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out: he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it, he that giveth breath to the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein." (Isaiah 42:5) The Psalmist said,

"When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars which thou has ordained; what is man, that thou art mindful of him..." Psalms 8:3-4) Let us consider some of God's works: The Sun. If the sun were any closer, we would burn up. If any further away, we would freeze up. It is 93,000,000 miles away, exactly the right distance. The exact design behind it is for the definite purpose of sustaining life on earth.
