Evidence for God

40 Scientific Reasons Pointing to Intelligent Design

Below are 40 pieces of scientific evidence to support the existence of God, or a supreme designer/creator.

Non-believers must believe all this intricate design work happened by sheer, random coincidence. To me, it takes more faith to believe that than it does to believe in God or a supreme creator.

40 Pieces of Scientific Evidence - for a supreme creator/designer - God

1

There are approximately 8+ billion people on planet earth, every human except identical twins have unique fingerprints, DNA, eye retinas and ear shapes.

2

The earth has all the elements and conditions to support humans, animals and vegetation.

3

The earth is approximately 93 million miles away from the sun. If the earth was 92 million miles away from the sun, humans would burn up and we couldn't grow enough food to feed the world's population. If the earth was 94 million miles away from the sun, humans would freeze and we couldn't grow enough food to feed the world's population.

4

Without sunlight no vegetation would grow to feed humans and animals.

5

If the sun was to vanish, earth and the other planets would drift into frozen darkness, and life as we know it would end shortly.

6

At approximately 15,000 feet above sea level food crops do not grow to support human and animal life.

7

Humans were not designed to live naturally underwater.

8

The earth spins 360 degrees every 24 hours around the sun on its axis which is titled 23.5 degrees. If the axis was titled a few degrees in either direction it would either be too hot or too cold to grow enough food to feed the earth's population.

9

If the earth spun faster than every 24 hours, greater hurricanes would occur and there would be massive flooding and destruction.

10

If the earth spun slower than every 24 hours there would extreme temperature changes of heat and cold and we wouldn't be able to grow enough food to feed the earth's population.

11

If the earth's orbit around the sun was not circular, rather elliptical like planets in other galaxies, temperature swings would be too extreme.

12

If the earth's moon did not exist there would also be extreme temperature changes, and we would not be able to grow enough food to feed the earth's population.

13

If the earth's moon did not exist there would be many more extreme hurricane winds on earth.

14

If the planet Saturn did not exist, Saturn's rings act as a vacuum cleaner to collect comets, asteroids and meteors that could otherwise strike earth.

15

If the earth's crust did not exist, the planet would be a chaotic, molten surface leading to the collapse and disintegration of the planet into asteroids.

16

If gravity didn't exist, all matter would simply drift apart, the earth and other celestial bodies would not form, and the universe would be a collection of dispersed particles rather than structured objects. Without gravity to hold the atmosphere and oceans to earth, they would float into space, and the planet itself would disintegrate.

17

The universe's gravitational force is so finely, precisely tuned even the slightest variation in its strength would drastically alter the universe, preventing the formation of stars, galaxies, and life.

18

If gravity were too strong, the universe would have collapsed quickly; if too weak, matter would have dispersed too much, and neither scenario would allow for planets and other cosmic structures or life to emerge.

19

Even the slightest, most miniscule change in the gravitational force would cause the universe to implode. The gravitational force in the universe is inconceivable precise.

20

The universe's electromagnetic force is so finely, precisely tuned for the existence of life, the slightest alteration in its strength would prevent stars from forming, atomic bonds from holding, and complex molecules from appearing.

21

If the nuclear forces did not exist, atoms larger than hydrogen would not form, as there would be nothing to hold protons together against their mutual electrostatic repulsion. The universe would consist only of hydrogen and scattered subatomic particles, preventing the formation of stars, planets, and any complex matter or life as we know it.

22

A less than 0.001% change in the nuclear force would not allow life to exist.

23

The earth's carbon cycle, the oxygen cycle, nitrogen cycle, phosphorus cycle, the sulfur cycle, calcium cycle, the sodium cycle and other cycles are all perfectly balanced which demonstrates the earth is uniquely suited for intelligent life.

24

The earth's atmosphere is essential as it filters out harmful ultraviolet radiation.

25

The earth's oceans moderate the earth's climate through the storing and redistribution of solar energy allowing for growing enough food to support the earth's population.

26

The size of the earth is just large enough so that gravity retains the earth's atmosphere and the size of the earth is just small enough not to retain too many harmful gases.

27

The sun's size and moon's size is perfectly suited for intelligent life on earth.

28

The moon stabilizes the tilt of the earth's axis, preventing wide temperature swings.

29

The moon contributes to the ocean tides flushing out nutrients from the earth's continents to the oceans which keeps them more nutrient rich than they would be otherwise.

30

If the moon's size was larger the oceans would have greater tides causing massive damage along shore lines.

31

The earth's interior is a gigantic but delicately balanced heat engine fueled by radioactivity. If that engine was running more slowly the continents never would have formed and iron would not have melted and the magnetic field never would have developed. If there was more radioactive fuel and the interior earth's heat engine was running faster, more volcanic dust would erupt and blot out the sun harming life.

32

Other galaxies such as elliptical, globular clusters, spiral and irregular galaxies do not have structures and elements with planets that could support intelligent life.

33

At this time no other galaxies have been discovered where there are planets similar to earth that can sustain intelligent life.

34

The human brain is extraordinarily complex, containing approximately 86 billion neurons and over 100 trillion connections, forming a network far more complex than anything known in the universe, including the Milky Way Galaxy. This intricate structure, consisting of neurons and glia cells, manages vital bodily functions, consciousness, thought, and emotion, with its functionality being even more intricate and less understood than its structure.

35

The human cell is extraordinarily complex, functioning like a bustling city with specialized organelles that carry out vital functions, including energy production mitochondria, protein synthesis ribosomes, and genetic control nucleus containing DNA. Far from being simple, a single cell is a sophisticated system of biochemical molecules, membranes, and fibers, all organized to maintain life, allow for growth and reproduction, and enable the specialized functions of the 200 different cell types within the human body.

36

DNA is extremely complex, functioning as a biological instruction manual with billions of nucleotide bases arranged in specific sequences to encode genetic information for an organism's development, survival, and reproduction. This complex code is organized into genes, which direct the production of proteins, the molecules that perform most of the cell's work. DNA's complexity is also seen in its intricate packaging within the cell nucleus and the vast amount of information it contains, which requires sophisticated computational analysis to study.

37

Human organs are extremely complex, consisting of different tissues and trillions of cells organized to perform specialized functions within the larger human body. This complexity stems from the hierarchical organization of the body, from atoms and molecules to cells, tissues, and finally organs and organ systems, all of which must work together precisely for the body to function and maintain life.

38

The blood clotting system in humans and animals is very complex. If it was not well balanced, simple cuts could result in bleeding to death or cause blood clots in the heart or brain which could cause death.

39

Most scientists now believe the universe had a beginning point and that the universe is not eternal, ever existing. Whatever begins to exist has to have a powerful cause that brings it into being. Nothing can come from nothing unless an extremely powerful designer force outside of time, space and matter caused it to begin.

40

More scientists every year are believing the universe and humans were supremely designed to enjoy a unique and perfectly balanced habitat for intelligent life on earth.

Why is God Invisible?

A common question I have been asked by atheists and agnostics is if God exists, why is he invisible? My answer is God chose to be invisible because his presence would be so overpowering for a mortal, imperfect human you would then be compelled to acknowledge God's existence. If you were compelled to acknowledge God, then that would remove free choice. Without free choice there can be no true love. Love can't be forced it must be freely given to be true love. God could have made us robots or puppets programmed to love and serve Him, but that would not be true love. God did make himself visible in the form of Jesus. There are no actual paintings or drawings of Jesus ever created when Jesus was alive because, as written in the Ten Commandments, God does want us worshipping idols and images.

If you can believe just the first verse/sentence in the Bible in the book of Genesis, then you can believe everything else in the Bible is possible.

"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth."

Genesis 1:1

The Precision Points to Design

The mathematical probability of all these factors aligning by pure chance is virtually impossible. The incredible precision required for life to exist suggests intentional design rather than random coincidence.

Each of these 40 pieces of evidence demonstrates the fine-tuning and perfect balance necessary for life on Earth. The odds of this happening by accident are astronomically small.

The evidence continues to grow. There are countless additional scientific reasons pointing to an intelligent, supreme designer - God. This list represents just 40 compelling pieces of evidence, but the scientific community continues to uncover new discoveries that further support the existence of a supreme creator.

As our understanding of the universe expands through advancing technology and research, the evidence for intelligent design becomes even more overwhelming and undeniable.
