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."

When the President Sounds the Alarm, But the Government Looks Away.

A President's Moral Warning Israeli presidents traditionally avoid political confrontation. Their role is largely ceremonial and symbolic, intended to unify rather than divide. Yet Herzog chose to speak openly about something many observers have documented for years: the erosion of moral restraints. His language was unusually severe. Warning of what he called " a terrible process of brutalization " within Israeli society, Herzog lamented that " there are segments among us that are barely shocked by violence anymore " while " certain other segments treat it lightly." Perhaps most alarming was his warning that extremist conduct is no longer confined to society's fringes. Such behavior, he said, is " threatening to enter the mainstream ." The significance of the speech lies not merely in what was said, but in who said it. When a country's ceremonial head of state feels compelled to warn that brutality is becoming normalized, the ...

From Karachi to the Palestine Book Awards: The Journey of The Livestreamed Genocide.

Honored to share that my latest work, The Livestreamed Genocide: A Civilization That Watched and Scrorrlled, has officially been submitted for consideration for the 2026 . 🇵🇸📚 Today, the physical manuscripts of the five-volume series were formally dispatched from Karachi to the distinguished judging panel in London and the United States as part of the awards review process. This project was written as both a historical chronicle and a moral inquiry into the age of digital witnessing — an era in which atrocities are no longer hidden from the world, yet are consumed in real time through screens, timelines, and livestreams. Grounded in documented evidence, authenticated sources, and extensive independent research, the series examines the relationship between modern media, public consciousness, political silence, and the normalization of suffering in the digital age. This work was researched, written, compiled, edited, and prepared independently over countless long days and nights....

When Violence Becomes the Language of the State Israel’s Internal Crisis and the Brutality Long Normalized in the West Bank

The image of prosecutor Salah Khalil Na’ameh’s battered face shocked many Israelis because it shattered a dangerous illusion: that state violence lmk can remain confined to Palestinians indefinitely without eventually consuming Israeli society itself. For Palestinians, especially in the occupied West Bank, such scenes are tragically familiar. A man beaten bloody by armed forces. Masked officers storming homes. Security forces accused of fabricating narratives later contradicted by video evidence. Citizens pleading for protection while police either stand aside or participate. What shocked many Israelis was not merely the brutality itself — but the identity of the victim. Na’ameh was not a villager from Hebron or a shepherd from Masafer Yatta. He was an Arab citizen of Israel. A state prosecutor. A man who worked within the Israeli legal system itself. And even he allegedly found himself helpless before a police force critics increasingly describe as politicized, radicaliz...

At 78, a Nation at War With Itself

There is a haunting irony in watching a state built on the promise of refuge become trapped in fear of its own reflection. For decades, **** was one of the men entrusted with Israel’s sword — soldier, commander, prime minister, architect of its security doctrine. Not a radical voice. Not an outsider. Not a dissident shouting from the margins. An insider. And when insiders begin speaking the language of alarm, history listens differently . His warning is not that Israel may be destroyed by rockets, tunnels, militias, or regional enemies. His warning is more unsettling: that Israel may survive every external war — and lose itself from within. That is a far more tragic form of defeat. A nation can repel missiles and still watch its institutions hollow out . A nation can dominate battlefields and still become morally exhausted. A nation can claim victory abroad while quietly burying democracy at home . This is the paradox now confronting Israel at 78: militarily formidable, technologic...

The Art of the Deal, the Strait of Fire, and the Empire of Manufactured Crisis

There is something almost breathtakingly absurd — and tragically familiar — in watching modern empire set the house ablaze, then stand in front of the flames demanding applause for holding a bucket. That is where America now stands in the Strait of Hormuz. Not as a stabilizer. Not as a peacemaker. Not as the adult in the room. But as an arsonist, pacing nervously outside the inferno, complaining that the smoke is ruining the neighborhood. According to reporting, Iran offered a pathway to reopen one of the world’s most vital energy arteries — a proposal that could ease global economic panic, calm oil markets, and halt further escalation. But there was a problem: It did not produce the one thing modern American politics worships above peace, above diplomacy, above global stability: a theatrical victory photo-op. A U.S. official reportedly worried accepting the deal might “deny Mr. Trump a victory.” Pause there and absorb the moral architecture of our age. Not: Will fe...
