THE EXISTENCE AND DISCOVERY OF GOD

elegantly in mathematical equations by the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) that when the great Austrian physicist Ludwig Boltzmann (1844-1906) saw them, he exclaimed: Who was the God who wrote these signs? This statement is not limited to electromagnetic interactions. Innumerable things spread over the vast expanse of the universe inspire the same awe. A serious person who studies the universe is bound to exclaim: Who was the God who wrote all these signs? When we study the universe scientifically, we find that the universe is a zero-defect universe. Countless galaxies, stars, and planets are in continuous motion in space, but unlike in our cities, there are no accidents in space. It is as if there is a large-scale accident-free traffic system in space. Likewise, here on earth, the forces of nature bring about many events every day. It is like a great industrial system operating at a zero-defect level. This unparalleled cosmic control and universal balance call out that there undoubtedly is an all-powerful and great God behind it. Our universe displays intelligent design and planning. From the tiniest of particles to the colossal galactic systems, this plan manifests itself to us. This plan is undoubtedly proof that there is a great mind behind the universe. Such a belief is as scientific as the belief in the existence of X-rays on seeing the image produced by them. Another fact understood from the observation of the things present in the universe is that there are exceptions along with uniformity. Exception goes against the common law. A simple example of this fact in nature is that every person has five fingers in each of their hands. These fingers are the same in everyone, but not everyone has the same fingerprints. The mark of each one is different from the mark of the other. The presence of this exception is not possible without the deliberate intervention of a Superior Being. Scientists estimate that there are about two trillion galaxies in the universe. Each galaxy contains about 200 billion stars. But the solar system with its star―the Sun―is an exceptional system so far found only in an exceptional galaxy called the Milky Way. In the universe, this exception cannot exist without the intentional intervention of a Powerful Being.
