How Nature Helps to Prove God’s Existence

Nature looks up to God, the trees, mountains, the sun shines down on us, the world is full of amazing miracles; The creatures are complex in how they are

made and look, each one being different from the other. How you can tell how old a tree is by counting the rings, is that not amazing? Each human body, though

some may look alike, they are all different, think differently, talk differently, and their lives are different.


The sun shines down on us through the days, its energetic heat warming the earth at exactly the right temperature. If the Earth were any closer or

farther from the sun, we would all either burn to death, or freeze to death. My point... If the earth were not perfectly stable where it is, we would all die.

This cannot be a mistake.


If you don’t believe that God made the universe explain this to me! Our earth is the only planet that rotates on an axis, at around 23.5 degrees; and has a

livable atmosphere, gravity, and life. Why are not any of the other planets livable? Or have life on them?


God supplies our needs in nature; the fruit and vegetable trees and plants supply an abundance of our food; Also for the animals, creatures, rodents, and

bugs does He also supply food and shelter for.


Grass, plants, trees, bushes and other living plant-like things are able to grow; But how? They don’t have blood and bones. They have water green stems,

and trees have trunks. How can all of these things be so perfected and be an accident or a mistake? It really shows how they have to have a maker or creator.

There are no other gods such as ‘sun gods’ that only create certain things. There is only ONE True God who created ALL OF IT and is the God of ALL OF IT.


He (God) created everything, - people- plant life-organisms- atoms, and everything else; If parts of the Bible is true than isn’t all of it? God must be

true. If a normal person was ‘god’… well they wouldn’t be. Man cannot even make a single living thread of grass, and defiantly cannot make a person, animal, or

plant. They can only mix, change, destruct or destroy what is already there. There is a God and He did come down to earth in the form of a man, to his creations

but He was not a normal person, He was without sin, and yet He died for our sins. He Was and Is the only TRUE God.

God is not in everything though his artistic work may be;


Rain, clouds, sleet, hail and snow all show amazing features; Water re-cycles itself; and falls as rain, if there is a storm or very cold

weather the water vapor gets so cold that it becomes sleet, hail and snow. Snowflakes consist of six edges of flakes on each flake of snow. Every single piece is

different than the other. There are no two of the same things. That is too complex for it to be any mistake. And it isn’t a mistake, there has to be a God soooo big

that He could and can create a Universe, even if everyone living in it doesn’t acknowledge Him and His work. Who are we to say that it was a mistake?

Also have you ever heard of something good or pleasant coming from an explosion? Look around, when you blow something up (such as a bomb, firework or

other explosive) does it end up as a human being, a house, store, or animal? No! That just doesn’t happen. So the theory that we came from something that

BLEW UP is absurd.


If the world was a mistake then wouldn’t there be mistakes in it? Would there not be more days to take to make a full circle of the earth? (Or year) Would

not the earth be tilted or slanted more or less as different years come and go? Would our atmosphere be losing a lot of its control, and gravity? No it’s not because

the world isn’t a mistake, it is a creation.

What do you want to bet it turns out the planet can't actually support life.

Excellently said, Betty. I meant an innate sense backed by proof, e.g. I have an innate sense that there is an explanation behind things falling towards the ground, proof = discovery of the theory of gravity. Innate senses are, in fact, used by everyone, including yourself. Do you have an innate sense of the phenomenon of 'cause-and-effect'? Intuition is a powerful tool if guided properly.

That having been said, you seem to assume I believe in a "God of the gaps". I do not. How is it different? Because I have reasons. I did not wake up one sunny morning and think, "Wow, I wonder how why the sun is so shiny. I know, it's cuz of God!" Au contraire, studying the universe has done nothing but increase my appreciaton & understanding of God. :)

If I told you that I really and truly believed in a giant kettle orbiting the Earth that controlled our daily lives, wouldn't you feel justified in bashing my beliefs?  Religion is no different.  Just because you happen to value those beliefs doesn't mean they should be given special exemption from logical analysis and critique, and just because you can't see how delusional religion is doesn't mean others should not point it out.

This comment actually made me cringe.  I tried to ignore it when I saw you wrote this more than a year ago, but something had to be done!  There is so much sloppiness in this writing... Take this sentence alone:

"He (God) created everything, - people- plant life-organisms- atoms, and everything else; If parts of the Bible is true than isn’t all of it?"

-A comma preceding a dash
-Dashes in place of commas for the list
-A capital I in "if" after a semi-colon
-"If PARTS (plural) of the Bible IS (singular) true..."

I could go on, but I think I've made my point!

A child who goes to sleep with a tooth under her pillow and wakes up with a dollar there instead takes this as proof that the tooth fairy exists: she grasps at any available explanation for things beyond her understanding.  How is that different from the ancient Greeks attributing the phenomena of the world to their gods on Mount Olympus, or to monotheists today citing a God as the source of everything?  The innate sense is to accept illogical things as true when we lack other explanations - that doesn't mean they're any less illogical.

The problem is that every piece of "proof" for your faith can in fact be explained scientifically or mathematically.  Except I guess for the whole "God came down as a person and then died for our sins" stuff, I won't even start on that.  Besides, isn't having "proof for your faith" kind of heretical?  It's not faith if you have to prove it...!

Of course other planets rotate on an axis!  Anything that rotates must have an axis of rotation.  Nearly all planets rotate: that's how we can say things like "a day on Jupiter lasts 0.42 Earth days".  We also know details about where these axis are located; Uranus is said to "spin on its side".  Lastly, obviously things like top and bottom are relative terms, but the Equator is the part of the Earth that is farthest from the axis of rotation, which is why we call it the "middle".

Sorry for the very late response, but I personally am scared that people don't see the issues with writing like this.  There was absolutely no support for anything written here.  It was all circular arguments: We know there's a God because the world appears designed, and the world could only appear designed if God designed it.

Props for writing something you knew you'd get bashed for. Beautiful work, I couldn't have said things better myself. I don't know where I'd be today without my faith:)

Not really, no. Don't forget that Adam and Eve's genes nessesarily included all genes present in the world today, because all human genes are inherited from them.

I think this is a bigoted quote that attempts to explain religious bigotry eloquently.

H.omosexuals are as much people as any of us. Leave them be.

"Crazy theories that are not true"? Are you referring to evolution and the big bang... which are supported by vast bodies of scientific evidence? Or are you referring to creationism, the belief that an invisible big man in the sky created us, of which there is no evidence at all?

Hmmm...

I totally agree! Just because something seems too good to be true doesn't mean there must be something that created it.

Once there was a puddle. He thought his little hole was so perfect and fit him so well that it must have been created for him. And so he put his faith in a higher being. Then out came the sun. The puddle prayed and prayed and prayed... but it was dried up and sucked away by the sun anyways.

"A story's beginning is a sudden event. The start, a happy accident; the end, the fate for which it's meant. A story that never ends is a sad fate."-Miss Edel

Uhh... facts?  Anyone?  This entire article is scientifically illiterate, and so are most of the comments here as well.

 

Considering gravity is one of the fundamental forces of nature, its rather silly to say our planet is the only one with it.  Gravity is present everywhere, without fail, quite obvious considering other planets even exist.

 

Our planet is not the only one to rotate on an axis either.  In fact, it a planet rotates at all, it by definition must have an axis it rotates on, someone with an elemtary level education should understand.

 

These are just a few of the myriad of mistakes present in your article.  If anything else should pop up in your mind, please, don't hesitate to ask.

Corkyspaniel, I understand that this comment is being posted MUCH later than your last post, but I felt like giving your question my best shot.  The way I view homosexuality is such:  Everyone has specific sins that they struggle with more than others.  For me, they're impatience, pride, and selfishness.  For others it's homosexuality.  Because mankind is born sinful (you don't have to teach a child to do wrong), certain people are handed the challenge of homosexuality.  That is not to say that one should ACT upon one's homosexual tendencies.  While humans cannot pull away from sin by themselves, God has the power to lead them down the different path he has for their lives.  It will be difficult, yes, but homosexual people are not left without a choice.  It's not about the difficulties handed to us, it's about what we do with them.
