Perhaps the greatest question we ever face is, “did God make us?” This book is a systematic enquiry into that question beginning with the anatomical evidence of the human body and in particular the human face. Is the human body designed or a product of random chance? Can random chance fully explain the arrangement of our eyes, the nose, the mouth or our five senses such as vision or hearing? Can our genes alone create us including the pinnacle of our physical being, our eyes and visual system?
The most famous book in history, the Bible says that the evidence for God is “clearly seen from what has been made”. Has God left His fingerprints on this world, or has science explained away the need for God? This book looks at the evidence, some of which has been with us since ancient times and some of which has been uncovered by the study of medicine. We look at our own human anatomy and how simple symmetries endow us with remarkable abilities such as speech, movement and sensation. We look at the world around us – the falling snowflake, the flowers in the garden, the wings of the butterfly, the colour and arch of the rainbow, the path of a river and the growth of a tree. We consider the shape of seashells on the shoreline and spiral galaxies in deep space.
We examine the mystery of laws that govern the universe, the simple power of the equals sign and the ancient value of “zero”. We break open the atom to look for underlying order. We ask why mathematical constants like pi recur throughout nature. We examine light and sound, to search for organisation or simple randomness. We ask if there are rules to music and think how the human ear can discern a tune. We wonder at the universality of morality and question whether we can expect eventual justice one day.
The new atheism would say that any observed order or patterns are merely curiosities and that we and the universe are simply the product of chance. Evolutionary biologists would say that the “design” we see in nature is an illusion. However, careful scrutiny of the medical evidence provided by our own anatomy tells us otherwise. Beyond medicine and beyond the reach of Darwinism, the message is the same: patterns, organisation and signs of intelligence emerge.
In this book I have tried to categorise these patterns using twelve types of symmetry, with many examples.
In our journey to understand our own structure and origins, we uncover the secrets behind the workings of the heart, the scent of lemon, the curious structure of DNA and the poison of thalidomide. We come to understand the formation of the human face and the simple but profound obstacles to Darwinism this creates. We see how beauty emerges from symmetry and how mutation violates it through cancer and disease. We see how equal human rights are essential and how phenomena as diverse as debt, weight loss and climate change can all be understood through a grasp of simple symmetries. We use symmetry to analyse human emotions, light and dark, love and hate.
Did God make us? There may be no more important question to ask. |
