I hear you, and you make a compelling argument.
Aside from a bona-fide spiritual experience, for example: meeting God, there's really only one argument that I have found irrefutable. That's the chain of cause-and-effect.
Every effect has a cause, even if we can't know it. If you follow this chain back far enough (i.e. a recursive algorithm) you find one of two base conditions must exist:
1) It goes on forever. Effect < cause < effect < cause forever without end.
2) A singular cause without its own cause started the entire process up.
If the first option appeals to you then accept the mystery of existence. You're in good company. If you accept the second option then congratulations, you've found God. You're also in good company.
@Romanov2488 This is virtually what I was going to say also.....”cause and effect” is a sound scientific principle as is the other sound scientific argument that “all life comes from pre-existing life’......the more you consult with nature, the more you see design and nothing “designed” has no designer. “Mother” Nature can do nothing without “Father” God.
Let’s take the computer we are all using as an example of design. Who would ever claim that our computers just appeared out of nowhere fully functioning, allowing us to communicate with people all over the world using an invisible signal beamed by satellites located in space?
But the computer has many components, all necessary for the thing to function as it was ‘designed’ to.
Each component was individually ‘designed’ so that when integrated with other specifically designed components, would all contribute to the full working model.
But then once the machinery is constructed, again in a very specific order, unless it is connected to a power source, it isn’t much use.
The power source is another specifically designed system and is used to make the machinery perform as it was designed to. But wait a minute.....if we want to communicate with other computers around the world, we need the Internet....another specifically designed system that allows us to do this. But again, what about the satellites that beam a straight signal around a circular planet? Who designed them and put them in their orbit? All these things have one element in common...they are all the product of intelligent design.
Do we ever stop to think how well these things are designed individually to all work together to give us these instruments that we use daily and often take for granted?
So now, what about the human body and the miraculous brain that drives it? Can you say with any certainty that something so complex was not “designed” by someone with superior intelligence? Not only the miracle that such living things exist in an environment designed to support their existence in an ongoing way, but that they have the ability to reproduce themselves using a code that is passed from one generation to the next. We are only just coming to terms with what DNA is and what it does. Did it just come out of nowhere?
What about our senses? We have the main 5, but again, if we could not see, what is the point of all the beauty that surrounds us?
If we could not hear what is the point of music or bird song or the sound of human voices?
If we could not taste, what is the point of all the different flavours we can savor?
If we could not smell things, what is the point of all those different fragrances and aromas that we can enjoy or to warn us if something is not good to consume? Or if there is something burning or rotten?
Our sense of touch is also a beautiful thing. We are tactile and so we touch things and it engenders feelings.
Can you not see the Creator’s hand in all those things? And....I have only scratched the surface....
