Seven Reasons Why a Scientist Believes in God

"WE ARE STILL IN THE DAWN of the scientific age, and every increase of light reveals more brightly the handiwork of an intelligent Creator. We have made stupendous discoveries; with a spirit of scientific humility and of faith grounded in knowledge we are approaching ever nearer to an awareness of God.

For myself, I count seven reasons for my faith:

First: By unwavering mathematical law we can prove that our universe was designed and executed by a great engineering intelligence.

Suppose you put ten pennies, marked from one to ten, into your pocket and give them a good shuffle. Now try to take them out in sequence from one to ten, putting back the coin each time and shaking them all again. Mathematically we know that your chance of first drawing number one is one in ten; of drawing one and two in succession, one in 100; of drawing one, two and three in succession, one in 1000, and so on; your chance of drawing them all, from number one to number ten in succession, would reach the unbelievable figure of one in ten billion.

By the same reasoning, so many exacting conditions are necessary for life on the earth that they could not possibly exist in proper relationship by chance. The earth rotates on its axis 1000 miles an hour at the equator; if it turned at 100 miles an hour, our days and nights would be ten times as long as now, and the hot sun would likely burn up our vegetation each long day while in the long night any surviving sprout might well freeze.

Again the sun, source of our life, has a surface temperature of 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit, and our earth is just far enough away so that this "eternal life" warms us just enough and not too much ! If the sun gave off only one half its present radiation, we would freeze, and if it gave as much more, we would roast.

The slant of the earth, tilted at an angle of 23 degrees, gives us our seasons; if the earth had not been so tilted, vapors from the ocean would move north and south, piling up for us continents of ice. If our moon were, say, only 50,000 miles away instead of its actual distance, our tides might be so enormous that twice a day all continents would be submerged; even the mountains could soon be eroded away. If the crust of the earth had only been ten feet thicker, there would be no oxygen, without which animal life must die. Had the ocean been a few feet deeper, carbon dioxide and oxygen would have been absorbed and no vegetable life could exist."

🕯️ The Day Tel Aviv Trembled: Iran’s Missiles and the Crumbling Illusion of Invincibility

  By ainnbeen.blogspot.com For decades, Israel projected an image of invulnerability— a fortress powered by American billions , state-of-the-art missile defenses, and a myth of unmatched military precision. But in a chilling shift, that illusion is cracking. As Iranian missiles rained down on Tel Aviv, not through proxies but directly from Tehran, the world witnessed what was once unthinkable: the heart of Israel under direct attack, air-raid sirens wailing , embassies shuttered , and diplomats fleeing. This isn’t just a military development —it’s a political earthquake . And it exposes deep fractures in Israel’s defense doctrine, regional strategy, and perhaps most importantly —its belief that it could strike without consequence. 🔥 1. Iranian Missiles Hit Tel Aviv: The Strike That Shattered Complacency In what appears to be retaliation for Israel’s continuous sabotage campaigns — nuclear facility strikes , assassinations of IRGC commanders — Iran unleashed a salvo...

🇮🇱🎭 When Israel Speaks, America obeys: From Truman’s Nod to Trump’s Prayer Rug 🇺🇸🛐

  By Ainnbeen.blogspot.com Welcome to the Middle East’s longest-running tragicomedy: " The Chosen Puppet Show." From 1948 to 2025 , it’s been a masterclass in manipulation. But don’t take my word for it—just ask Israel’s most recent “ambassador” to Washington, Mike Huckabee , who now speaks not just for Israel, but apparently for God Himself. Yes, you read that right. In a message that sounds more like a Sunday sermon than a diplomatic dispatch, Huckabee called Trump “ the most consequential president in a century – maybe ever.” And why? Because he’s listening to “the voice of God”...on Israel policy . Oh, we’re doing this again. Because when Israel wants billions in weapons, moral cover for war crimes, or a fresh round of sanctions against whichever Muslim country is next on the hit list—there’s always a “divinely inspired” American president standing by. Let’s rewind a bit. 🎬 Scene One: The Truman Trick In 1948, President Harry Truman recognized Israel eleven...

🛡️ Israel's Air-Defense Under Pressure: A Rising Iranian Hypersonic Threat

  🛡️ Israel’s Iron Dome May Hold—But for How Long? As Iran expands its missile arsenal with supersonic and hypersonic capabilities, Israel’s once-famed air defense now faces a triple crisis: strategic, economic, and societal . While the world watches air battles unfold in the skies, the deeper vulnerabilities lie beneath—in the nation's fatigued population, overstretched military, and fragile economic base. 🚨 Strategic Threat: The Iranian Hypersonic Surge Iran reportedly maintains over 3,000 ballistic missiles , including: Fattah-1 & Fattah-2 : Hypersonic glide vehicles (Mach 13–15+). Khorramshahr-4 & Qassem Bassir : With maneuverable warheads and terminal speeds that can overwhelm Israel’s Arrow and David’s Sling systems. Thousands of SRBMs (Zolfaghar, Qiam, Fateh variants) capable of saturating Iron Dome through sheer volume. While Israel’s Iron Dome remains highly effective against traditional threats (85–90% interception rate), hypersonic missiles introd...

🇮🇱 From Iron Dome to Iron Walls: The Israeli Exodus Nobody Wants to Talk About

So, who’s left in Israel? The streets of Tel Aviv echo not with music, but with the low hum of anxiety. Airports aren’t gateways to vacation anymore—they're lifeboats. Flight boards have become emotional barometers, each cancellation another reminder that “the most powerful military in the Middle East” can’t guarantee what every child needs to sleep at night: safety. Let’s call it what it is— a nation in psychological retreat . More than half a million Israelis packed their bags during the Gaza war. Not for business. Not for pleasure. Just... gone. Vanished into foreign time zones while their homeland burned in moral, political, and literal fire. Another 82,000 followed in 2024. That’s not emigration. That’s evacuation—with a side of therapy bills. And now? With Iran turning up the heat and skies darkened by more than just missiles, the silence is deafening. Bomb shelters double as nurseries. Children draw their dreams on concrete walls. And adults—adults are Googling “how to ...
