1) ? What 'Design ? I do not see anything implicitly designed. I see no design in rocks. In stellar formations. 'Signs' ? What do you mean by 'Signs'? SO, you're saying that things such as 'Cancer' and 'Floods' are also designed?
Hi there, welcome.
First thing I'll point at are the orbits of planets (it's what made me write this anyways). All planets in our solar system rotate the sun anti-clockwise , moreover you've got the relationships between everything that make them fall right into our scope of logic: just like pieces of a puzzle. Science would never make sense unless the pieces "fit together".
In other words; what coincidence that our eyes understand the message they are seeing, and the message they are seeing make follow the same pattern over and over, and what a coincidence that the pattern can be "studied" and being written what would later be known as "science".
Quote: 2) ? Huh ? The Sun does not give the Earth its 'Time'. It is the Earth's rotation which creates a 'Night' and 'Day cycle. If there us a 'Cosmic clock'... why do all the planets in this solar system rotate at different speeds? Why doesn't Venus rotate at the same speed or direction as Earth? They are very similarly sized stellar bodies after all.
Without the star, the night/day cycle would never happen; thus time would be an oblivious matter to us.
Quote:3) As an emergent property of a nervous/nerological system I believe it 'Just is'. The same as can be seen in diefferent foms in other animals. Many other primates exhibit awarness of self. As do some birds. Heck, I believe there has even been tests done on certain moluscs which seem to show that 'They' have a sense of 'Self.
I never said that other creatures don't have a "weaker sense" of consciousness, actually there is a lot of explicit evidence in the Quran that creatures do sense and think.
Cheers.
