Isn't Nature Wonderful?

Just about to creep up the stairs to bed when I hear a review of Prof' Stephen Hawking's new book, 'The Grand Design' which declares that, "Physics has no need for God as (apparently) natural physics created the universe unaided. Big Bang was a self-starting, self-sustaining and controlling event and it, and the rest, is down to science obeying nature!"

I just love the people who see 'nature' as some sentient power which controls flowers blooming, fruit growing and even little fluffy bunnies and gambolling lambs turning up at the right time. But of course nature is not a sentient being, it is merely the following of a programme which fits in with the seasons of the year.

So who programmed this wonderful nature then?

Bed :)

I have noticed how often even atheist evolutionists find it hard to speak of these supposedly random processes without ascribing some kind of purposefulness to it - evolution has "designed these creatures for such and such". Obviously anthropomorphism wins out in the end!

There is a conductor or director of nature - he has no name as He is God.

Perhaps if he had a scientific name he might be recognized.

Totally agree.

Amazing how we can see the big picture and yet miss the (even larger) artist!

Thanks,
