There could be no doubt in anyone's mind who's ever been there that New York City is a vast and very complex entity. Not many of us are cell biologists, but it is likely that we could take the word of Nobel Prize winner, Linus Pauling, regarding cells: "One living cell in the human body is more complex than New York City." That's just one tiny, microscopic cell - among the trillions in the human body, mind you. And that's just considering its structure. It is alive! Our top scientists are not able to fathom the mystery of life! Far to the other end of the spectrum of complexities are the galaxies beyond galaxies beyond galaxies.
I recently read an illustration that, to me personally, quite lucidly punctuated the veracity of the biblical assertion: "The fool has said in his heart, there is no God." In his book, In Defense of the Faith, Dave Hunt wrote of two survivors of a shipwreck washed ashore on an island where deep in the jungle they came across an automated factory. Without a person in sight, there were products being manufactured, packaged, and labeled for shipping. One man exclaimed with joy at the evidence - that was obvious to him - that the island was inhabited. His companion, however, told him that he was crazy, purporting that there was no reason to believe that some intelligent being had designed and put together the factory. To him it was more logical that the meticulously operating factory was just a conglomeration of atoms that happened to come together by chance over billions of years!
Did, after all, the universe come into existence by itself? There can't be a design without a designer! To me, it is infinitely more logical to face the obvious: that without God neither the universe, nor we ourselves would exist. The very first words in the Bible are "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." (Genesis 1:1) There's no need to argue God's existence, because it is self-evident from the universe we see around us. And more, it is written within our hearts, implanted by God Himself.
