Hello everyone,
I recently had a conversation with a theist, and he gave a proof that God does exist. The conversation went something like this :
Theist : Consider that i show u a Microprocessor controlled temperature system and then tell you that nobody made it . It is eternal and unassembled. It has its own properties that it reads the temp and give the output in fan or heater. Will u then believe me? Answer with appropriate reason.
Me : No, I will not believe you. It requires intelligence of a human to put together various non-living pieces in such a way that it performs systematic work.
Theist : Does it have enough inteligence to buy a battery or search for a power supply and start itself? Can it work on its own without being assembled, organised, set by any external intelligent power?
Me : No, It does not have that intelligence. A human does have to insert the battery, or the power supply. It should have been assembled and organized by a human. A non-living thing like mcts, can-not work on its own.
Theist : If non living things are dependent on external intelligence to perform some systematic work, how can you believe that this whole universe, where each mass systematically exerts gravitational force, where charge systematically exerts coulumbic force, where everything is so systematic, can come to existence naturally? How can you believe that no-one created it.
Me : <answerless>
I need a good argument to counter his reasoning, something is flawed in this, and I can't seem to find out what is wrong in this reasoning. Can anyone help me?
