A Complex Design Presupposes a Designer (2)




Dear young Muslim! Here is another logical argument taken from a simple object that you deal with on a daily bases.


If you walk in a desert and you find an HB yellow and black striped pencil, sharpened from one side and has a red eraser on the other side.


Will any sane person dare to claim that this pencil, through time, hundreds, thousands or even millions of years, formed on its own?


What is the chance of this happening by coincidence?


Note it is only a pencil, which is very simple in its manufacturing compared to many other more complicated objects.


It is a piece of carved wood with a tiny long cylindrical channel; filled with graphite; painted with colors; with few words engraved on the side; and a metallic ring on top of it to hold the red well shaped eraser. As simple as that!


Well, What if we find dozens of similar pencils around? What would be the chance of coincidence now?


If you tell anyone that this pencil, over time, formed on its own, he will surely question your sanity.


If this pencil, which is a non-living object, entails that there is a wise, knowledgeable and able manufacturer. What about the multitude and varieties of more complex living creatures, doesn't that necessitate a wiser, more knowledgeable and able Creator?


Look around you, how many species each creature has. Can you imagine that there are 12,000 species of ants and around 40,000 species of spiders? Each single species is billions in numbers.


Now look how many worlds of creatures do we have around us; we have human world, sea world, birds world, animals world, insects world, trees world, plants world, flowers world, bacteria world, germs world, virus world…etc. Can these multitudes of worlds come to existence without a creator?


Logically, there can never be a chance for that to occur by coincidence without a creator!
