We learn the laws of the universe by experience and observation. The laws become so ingrained in us that we may not even realize we are reacting to them. It's like the disease of leprosy. Leprosy can cause damage to the peripheral nerves resulting in the person who has the disease to have a decreased ability to register pain. Because of this, lepers can cause permanent damage to their fingers and toes because they damage them in an accident without realizing it and then do not protect them. When a healthy person hurts him/herself, (s)he favours and protects the injury so that it has a chance to heal. We do this often without even realizing it. We have the laws of the universe ingrained into us in much the same way.
If I was driving along the road and came upon a hill that had white rocks that spelled out "Welcome to Thunder Bay," what would I think about the rocks' existence. My first thought would not be, "Oh, isn't that interesting that a number of white rocks rolled down that hill and stopped in the exact place to spell out those words. What a weird coincidence." No, my first thought would be, "Someone came out here and put those rocks into place to spell out those words." Wherever we see organization and structure, we invariably assume that a being of intelligence was responsible for it. We wonder about crop circles and Stonehenge for the same reason. They are still being talked about and studied because we don't accept that it happened by chance. It seems to me that the creation of the universe should be no different. There is organization and structure. It is not logical to begin with the assumption that it happened by chance.

Good day alaninnont.
ReplyDeleteI am currently reading an interesting book about pattern and design recognition called Nature, Design, and Science: The Status of Design in Natural Science by Del Ratzsch. This book may help in answering some of your questions.
Thanks. I'll look it up.
