[Quranic Reflection]: The tolerance the Quran gave non-believers

[R00tKiT]

Uhm.... 'No' ?

Life exists because chemsitry does what it does.

Chemstry does what it does because of the properties of atoms.

The state of atoms is, basically, 'What is'.

Hence physicists constantly trying to figure out what is going on with atoms.

Hence my comment about the possiblity of the rest state of electrons changing and re-writing all of reality as we currently know it into something... that isn't.

Our current sample size for 'Life' is exactly '1'.

That myriad types of organic material is being found all over our solar system... Well... it'll be interesting to get out to Europa and see what's there, hey?



Not at work.

So basically, everything does what it does because 'it is'. What you're saying is a tautology. Nobody denies physics figures out how things work, but if they seem to work for specific purpose, an ontological explanation is warranted.

Let me restate my answer this way : if a marksman successfully shoots down a hummingbird from a very long range, here is what physicists would say : the bullet went straight to the bird because the trajectory of the bullet is 'just is', the bullet came from the rifle in the right moment because the rifle just happens to be there at this moment.

Now all what the physcists are saying is true of course, but the existence of a purpose [killing the bird] warrants an intelligent agent with the purpose in mind. That's what detectives do in a daily basis, they find evidence of purposeful killing, therefore a killer. And science increasingly reveals to us that's it's actually safe to infer that to the whole universe, because again, the universe seemed to have our existence in mind.
