There it is folks, the atheist's
nightmare, all wrapped up in a yellow skin. (please note sarcasm right there)
The problem underlying such
an argument is the obvious need for faith. And that is what this gentleman seems
to have forgotten. To him, the banana may be a perfectly logical and obvious
manifestation of a creator. But only because he already has faith in God.
Likewise, the more I learn about the way the human body functions, the more
difficult I find it to chalk it all up to random mutations over the course of
millenia, with no guiding hand in it all. But again, I only see that because I
already have faith.
To the person who doesn't have faith, these likely
seem like ridiculous attempts to see a creator where there is none. That is
fine. We are all free to believe what we believe. But I wish that religous
people would realize one hugely significant principle:
We cannot prove
the existence of God.
We never will be able to. Likewise, no one will
ever be able to prove there is no God. It all boils down to faith. Some of us
have faith in a god, and can see his/her/its influence everywhere. Others have
faith that there is no god, and see nothing of the sort. Faith is the key, and
trying to prove something spiritual will fall flat every time.
