Question for Atheists

" My dear respected brothers and sisters, we have to ask ourselves a further question. When you see a bridge, a building or an automobile, you automatically consider the person or company that constructed it. When you see a large ship, an airplane, a rocket, a satellite; you also think about how incredible it is. [You know by its design who the maker is.] When you see a super international airport, nuclear plant or an orbiting space station you have to be thoroughly impressed with the engineering dynamics that are involved. Yet, these are just things that are manufactured by human beings. So what about the human body with its massive and intricate control systems? Think about it.

Think about the brain: how it thinks, functions, analyzes, retrieves and stores information, as well as distinguishes and categorizes information in a millionth of a second, all of this constantly.

Think about the brain for a moment. (And don't forget the fact that you are using your brain to consider itself!) This is the brain that made the automobile, the rocket ships, the boats, and so on. Think about the brain and who made that!

Think about the heart. Think about how it pumps continuously for sixty or seventy years [taking in and discharging blood throughout the body] maintaining steady precision throughout the life of the person.

Think about the kidneys and the liver and the various functions they perform. The purifying instruments of the body that perform hundreds of chemical analyses simultaneously and also controls the level of toxicity in the content of the body. All of these are done automatically.

Think about your eyes, the human cameras, that adjust, focus, interpret, evaluate, discern color automatically, naturally receiving and adjusting to light and distance.

Think about it-Who created them? Who has mastered their design and function? Who plans and regulates their function? Human beings do this? No, of course not. What about this universe?

Think about this. This earth is one planet in our solar system, and our solar system is one [of possible many] solar systems. Our galaxy, The Milky Way, is one of the galaxies. There are ONE HUNDRED MILLION GALAXIES in the universe. They are all in order and they are all precise. They are not colliding with each other. They are not conflicting with on another. They are swimming along in an orbit that has been set for them. Did human beings set that into motion and are human beings maintaining that precision? No, of course not.

Think about the oceans, the fish, the insects, the birds, the plants, bacteria, and chemical elements that have not yet been discovered and cannot be detected even with the most sophisticated instruments. Yet each of them has a law that they follow. Did all of this synchronization, balance, harmony, variation, design, maintenance, operation and infinite numeration happen all by chance? Do these things function perfectly and perpetually also by chance? No, of course not. That would be totally illogical and foolish. In the least, it indicates that however it came to exist-it exists beyond the realm of human capability. We will all agree to that. The Being, The Almighty Power, God, The Creator who has the knowledge to design and proportion created all of this and is responsible for maintaining it. HE is the only one that deserves praise and gratitude.

If I were to give each one of you one hundred dollars for no reason, just for being here, you would at least say thank you. What about your eyes, your kidneys, your brain, your children, and your life: Who gave you all of that? Is He not worthy of praise and thanks? Is He not worthy of your worship and recognition?

Our purpose in this life is to recognize The Creator, to be grateful to Him, to worship Him, to surrender ourselves to Him and to obey the laws that He has determined for us. It means worship is our purpose in life. Whatever we do in the course of that worship, [i.e., the eating, the sleeping, the dressing, the working, the enjoying,] between birth and death is consequential and subject to His orders. But the main reason for our creation is worship. I don't think anyone who is analytical or scientific will have much of an argument with that purpose. They may have some other reason with themselves-but that is something they have to deal with between themselves and Almighty God."

Also, Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

Anyways, the sad thing about the text which you quote, apart from the fact that it is a more boring rehash of Paley's watchmaker argument... what I find so irritating is that the preacher is apparently willfully ignorant. He either lies or is wrong about several things which are well understood by science - he is just not on the necessary level of scientific discourse to be taken seriously by me, in other words, he sounds like an idiot. Case in point:

Think about this. This earth is one planet in our solar system, and our solar system is one [of possible many] solar systems. Our galaxy, The Milky Way, is one of the galaxies. There are ONE HUNDRED MILLION GALAXIES in the universe. They are all in order and they are all precise. They are not colliding with each other.

(emphasis of particularly stupid parts mine)
First of all, it's one hundred BILLION galaxies in the observable universe. Well, whatever, three orders of magnitude can happen. We know that there are many many other solar systems, but hey, maybe the latest Kepler data eluded the writer of these lines.
The point is, whoever wrote this rant apparently didn't bother to really learn anything about the cosmos, and that really makes me sad, because such ignorance is passed on to people like you.

Of course Galaxies collide, not only are Galaxies like ours formed by collisions of smaller ones, indeed we are in a collision course with Andromeda. Here's a many particle simulation for you depicting the development in the next few billion years




I'll leave you with an inspirational picture of NGC5426 while you can contemplate how profoundly you are being misled.



By the way, that's a photo, not an artist's impression. Reality is so much more interesting than the simplistic fairy tales of your preachers. And I'm not even going into the complete ignorance of evolution on display here.

Think about the brain for a moment.
Think about the heart.
Think about your eyes

Alright. So let me explain this. What he meant was this. Everything in this world is in correct order and in perfect calm state. When sun rises in the morning from the east , it will always rise from the east. It will never rise from the west. But when it does , that day will be the Day of Judgement( Our belief ). All the Universe's particles are in constant struggle with each other. The collision in cosmos is also a struggle to achieve a perfect order. 99% of the universe is expanding. They expand by either struggle or collision with other particles.

So by saying that nothing collides with each other is Ofcourse wrong. And I perceive that the speaker was well aware of the fact i just described above. Clash of things must happen to gain a content state in this universe.
