Why Must We Test For The Existence Of God In The Science Laboratory ? by Truthdefender66: 12:07am On Oct 24, 2019
Why must we test for the existence of God in the science laboratory ?


The zygote of a cockroach can only develop into a cockroach

The zygote of a tilapia fish can only develop into a tilapia fish

The zygote of an alligator can only develop into an alligator

The zygote of an ostrich bird can only develop into an ostrich bird

The zygote of an elephant can only develop into an elephant.

The zygote of a gorilla can only develop into a gorilla.

The zygote of a blue whale can only develop into a blue whale.

The zygote of a human being can only develop into a human being.

This implies that zygote of a particular animal species must possess a particular set of encoded information representing the physical and behavioral characteristics of that very species of animal.

It is this very encoded information that scientists described as DNA.

This DNA template contains a lot of biological information on how to construct and assemble different parts of animals'body during embryonic development

Since all the organs that make up the body of animal do not form at the same time, the construction of various organs during embryonic development has to follow each other in a sequential manner.

Therefore, all the different information on the DNA template has to be read, interpreted and implemented sequentially for different organs that make up the body to be constructed and assembled.

For example, after the construction of the the three germ layers ( endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm), the first organ to be constructed during embryonic development is the heart.

According to embryology, there are 5 stages involved in the construction of the heart during embryonic development.

Stage 1: formation of the heart tube.

Stage 2: looping of the heart tube

Stage 3: formation of the heart chambers ( left and right atria, left and right ventricles)

Stage 4 : development of the outflow tracts like ascending aorta and pulmonary trunks

Stage 5: formation of the heart valves ( bicuspid and tricuspid valves)

Molecular studies have shown that more than 500 genes are involved in the development of the mammalian heart.

This implies that those five stages involved in heart development are being controlled by more than 500 strands of information on the DNA template.

So how did relevant encoded information manage to be read, interpreted and implemented to create all the complex events involved in the five stages of the heart construction ?

It is like you are being asked to construct an engine of a motor car by following a set of information given in a particular manual.

If you're not a perfectly trained engineer, then how are you going to read, interpret and implement these set of informations to construct and assemble different parts of the car engine ?


Therefore, if an untrained but intelligent human being cannot just read, interpret and implement a particular information to construct and assemble different parts of a complex system, then how did an untrained and unintelligent natural process manage to READ, INTERPRET and IMPLEMENT the set of information in the human DNA to CONSTRUCT and ASSEMBLE different parts of human body ( like head, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, hands, chest, stomach, thigh, legs, tongue, teeth, gullet, lungs, heart, liver, kidney, spleen, testes, hypothalamus, thyroid etc ) without being guided by any intelligence ?


From our experience as intelligent human being, we know what it takes to CONSTRUCT AND ASSEMBLE DIFFERENT PARTS OF A COMPLEX SYSTEM by following a set of instructions.

1. You have to read the instruction

2. You have to interpret what you have read

3. You have to implement your interpretation by carrying out some active and specific movements.


Therefore, even if we assume that information on the DNA template managed to be evolved and changed with time by unguided processes of nature as the evolutionists want us to believe, then are we to assume again that reading, interpretation and implementation of these different information to construct and assemble different parts of bodies of animals ( like cockroach, tilapia fish, crocodile, ostrich bird, elephant, gorilla and blue whale) during embryonic development also managed to be evolved by unguided processes of nature ?



But one particular thing is certain; if an information on the DNA template managed to be evolved and changed with time by a certain natural process, then READING, INTERPRETATION and IMPLEMENTATION of this very information to construct and assemble different parts of animal body during embryonic development can never also evolved by a natural process because we know from experience that these three processes (reading, interpretation and implementation of an information) can only originate from an " intelligent mind "

Hence,automatic transformation of a very tiny zygote (which is smaller than the size of a mustard seed ) into a comparatively huge and beautiful new born baby during embryonic development must definitely be the work of an intelligence even if we cannot test for the owner of this very intelligence in the science laboratory. Of course we know intuitively that intelligence cannot be the owner of itself.



It is the owner of this very intelligence that many people described as God. Therefore, God must actually exist no matter how evolutionary scientists and their colleagues wish for His non existence.


O man! What has deceived you concerning your Lord ? Who created you, fashioned you and then made you symmetrical? In whatever Form He wills, does He assemble you together (Qur'an 82:6-9).


For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother's womb. I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:13-14).

You’re just using the watchmaker argument.

First of all this your argument fails because evolution is a fact!

Let’s assume we don’t want to use evolution to refute this argument. If life is complex and something complex requires an intelligent designer. Then god is complex and indirectly he’d need to be created by an intelligent designer and this goes on and on till infinity leading to an infinite regress.

But if you decide to commit the begging the question fallacy and decide that god is the ultimate designer and he doesn’t require a designer. Then I can use your logic to say that life also had no creator

To to be intellectually honest. The best answer is “we do not know how life started” but we know how complex life evolved.

Whether evolution is a fact or not, this doesn't affect my argument because reading, interpretation and implementation of information on the DNA template to construct and assemble different parts of animal body during embryonic development require intelligence.
In other words, the transformation of a very tiny zygote into a comparatively huge and marvelous new born baby is definitely the work of intelligence. And intelligence cannot be the owner of itself.

If life had no beginning, then you should have made a tangible point by saying life also had no creator just like our ultimate designer who created an information processing system in a living cell. But alas, life came to exist about 3.5 billion years ago. Therefore, life must definitely have a creator because it began to exist.

can you give me any example of any life that was created by an intelligent designer?

Life must have a creator because it began to exist 3.5 billion years ago?
The problem I have with you is that you already conclude your answer before you ask the question.

This is how your analogy sounds

This wristwatch is complex : therefore an intelligent designer made it

Life is complex therefore an intelligent designer made it.

Premise 2

The complex watch was made in 2006
Therefore life was made in 2006

You can’t be committing the false analogy fallacy to argue.

I want this to be a religious debate not a scientific debate. Cause if you claim you know science then you don’t! Cause no serious scientist would ask these ridiculous questions

Honestly, you have seriously overlooked the major point of my argument which simply says "construction and assembling of different parts of a complex system(like a car engine or human body ) by FOLLOWING SOME KIND OF INFORMATION" is a work of intelligence because;

1. It would require you to READ the information.
2. It would require you to INTERPRET what you have read.
3. It would require you to IMPLEMENT your interpretation by performing some kind of active and specific movements.

And we know from experience that these three processes ( reading, interpreting and implementing an information) can only originate from an intelligent mind.

That is to say, the very act of reading, interpreting and implementing the information on the DNA template to construct and assemble the different parts of animal body during embryonic development is definitely the work of intelligence.

So this is the basis of my argument. It is NOT the issue of "complexity" as you think but the issue of " reading, interpreting and implementing an information" to create that complexity. Hope you understand it now ?

So it has nothing to do with evolution or complexity of a wrist watch


But if you still fail to understand my point of argument, then there is nothing I can do to assist you.

For easy understanding, consider the following premises.

Premise 1; From our experience as intelligent human being we know that the process of reading an information, interpreting an information and implementing an information to construct and assemble the different parts of any system is a work of intelligence.

Premise 2; During embryonic development, the information on the DNA template is usually read, interpreted and implemented to construct and assemble different parts of animal body.

Premise 3; Therefore, the transformation of a very tiny single ball of cell (known as zygote) into a new born baby during embryonic development is definitely the work of intelligence.

Premise 4; But intelligence cannot be the owner of itself; it must be owned by an intelligent being

Premise 5; Hence, there is intelligent being behind the transformation of a very tiny zygote into a new born baby during embryonic development

Please for the sake of sincerity, which of the five premises stated above is wrong and explain the reason why it is wrong.

What I understand op to be saying (not that I read it all, and not that he explicitly said or even means this), is that DNA is the Word of God through which God created humans. [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+2%3A7&version=NIV]Genesis 2:7[/url]; [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+1%3A1-4&version=KJV]John 1:1-4[/url].

And Jesus is telling you to learn the Word of God when he says "Love the Lord thy God and Love the creations of God who live by you and your enemies even moreso". [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+12%3A30-31&version=KJV]Mark 12:30-31[/url]; [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+5%3A44&version=KJV]Matthew 5:44[/url] You after all cannot love that which you do not have knowledge of.

I would not offer any of this as evidence for God though, because to start with, evidence is image making and God don't like images. Second, God is a Spirit that no one has seen so why should the blind see God? Third, even Jesus never bothered with evidence of God so why should ordinary humans feel the need to go drag God from up in the heavens and present God to unworthy humans who say God does not exist? If they were worthy of seeing God, surely, God would come to them Godself and say to them, "Here I Am"! And fourth, "God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth", and not in a science lab!

See below what evolutionary scientists say about construction and shaping of human brain during embryonic development;


"The making of the human brain from the tip of a 3 millimeter neural tube is a marvel of biological engineering. To arrive at the more than 100 billion neurons that are the normal complement of a newborn baby, the brain must grow at the rate of about 250,000 nerve cells per minute, on average, throughout the course of pregnancy. But it is not the volume of growth alone that makes the production of a human brain staggering to consider. The great number of functions that the brain reliably carries out and the specificity with which these are assigned to one or another type of cell or small location in the whole assembly are stunning in their complexity; yet the feat of growing a human brain occurs in hundreds of millions of individuals each year. The brain's 100 trillion or so interconnections provide the physical basis for its speed and sophistication. But how is such an intricate network constructed in the first place? Does the genetic material of the fertilized egg already contain a full set of building specifications for the human brain, in which every cell is created as a minute increment in the overall design? And if the set of instructions is indeed so closed and specific, how could chance or random mutations or the influence of the environment have played a role—as they so evidently have done and continue to do—in the emergence of the first human brains?
From these questions, it is easy to see that any scientific account of the development of the human brain has to meet a formidable challenge. For such an account must not only explain a sequence of development of great orderliness and efficacy but also allow room for the creative effects of chance—in the form of random mutations and the ensuing natural selection—that have led to the propagation of this particular form of brain in the first place."


Here is the reference;
https://googleweblight.com/i?u=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK234146/&hl=en-NG


See how they have already assume that our brain was created by evolutionary process of chance (mutations) through natural selection despite the fact that they were using words and phrases which implies intelligent design of human brain

We are told that brain must grow at the rate of about 250,000 nerve cells per minute. By calculation, this implies that over 4,000 nerve cells are created in one second during embryonic development.
See the unimaginable speed at which the nerve cells are created; over 4000 nerve cells per one second. Yet according to our evolutionary scientists, this speed was achieved by process of chance despite their admission that this is a marvel of biological engineering.

Can a process of chance produce a marvel of engineering in our technological world ? No, it is impossible. But, according to evolutionary scientists, this is possible in the biological world simply because they don't to want to accept that there is another intelligence which is greater than that of human being. Instead of allowing the theory of evolution to be led by the evidence, it is the evidence that is now being led by the theory. So no matter how the evidence for intelligent design abound in the biological world, evolutionary process of chance must surely and always be the correct answer.
