Creation Moment 10/30/2018 - The Whole Scheme of Nature

And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. Genesis 1:31

Nature is absurd,” jokes biologist Michael Denton, adapting a view expressed by physicist Richard Feynman in his book, QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter.
In saying so, Denton means to highlight what often seems to be the absurdly fine-tuned fitness of the properties of light, water, fire, and more, that allow for our existence. 


As he explains, the dual wave and particulate aspects of light, essential to our ability to see, and so much else, must all be just right to within insanely precise parameters. The whole scheme of nature isn’t absurd. It’s beautiful. Yet what we know about cosmic fine-tuning, what Denton has to teach us, would be hard to believe if it weren’t true." EN&V
