Evidence of God

Your right arm is probably bent at the elbow now, hand holding the mouse and clicking away.

Now, stretch out your arm in front of you.

It seems a simple task to you, of course.

But what's happening is a number of extremely complex cycles in your muscles cells that produce energy that affords you to move your arm in the first place. That energy then gets converted into kinetic energy through the contraction of your muscle cells so that your arm can unbend and stretch forth and hold it in that position.

And other than that, there' also the tendons that connect your muscles to your bone, exerting the pulling force on your bones that makes your arm unbend. And also there's also the ligaments that are holding the two parts of your entire arm together - the forearm and, erm, the other part - that keeps your arm from dislocating most painfully.

And then I could go on about other stuff that connects to the simple, simple task - to us, anyway - of stretching an arm forth.

Many say that the world came about through the process of evolution. Many good minds claim that, after the Big Bang, a whole number of incredibly lucky events happened to eventually result in the formation of bacteria which then evolved into more complex organisms, and finally the human you know today.

Okay. Let's just say that, yes, evolution happened, and out of the millions of probabilities of combinations of atoms and molecules, the just-right ones occured to produce proteins and the necessary components for life.

But consider this, all those combinations might, and this is a megnomous might, produce proteins and stuff like that, but no way can any combination of atoms or molecules produce life.

No, no combination of any physical thing could breathe life, could put a spirit, a soul in an organism. For that matter, no combination of anything could create the human mind.

No.

If any of you blog-readers somehow can come up with an explanation for how the process of evolution could bring about a soul, I'm willing to hear you out.

So face it, there is a God out there, the same God who made you, who made me, who made the delicate petals of a sweet-smelling rose, who made the sun to shine.

And there's only one God.

Ta.
