C. S. Lewis in The Problem of Pain quotes Pascal as saying:
“. . .proving the existence of God from the works of Nature. . .only gives their readers grounds for thinking that the proofs of our religion are very weak. . It is a remarkable fact that no canonical writer has ever used Nature to prove God.” [1]
Because we are finite, our ability to know the truth is very limited and that includes our scientific knowledge. However, what about what Paul says in Romans?
“For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.” (Romans 1:19-20 ESV)
Paul does not prove the existence of God but he says the proof is there if we will look. Several individuals (e.g. Stephen C. Meyer, Michael J. Behe, William A. Dembski, Eric Metaxas, and others) have presented scientific evidence that the universe has a creator and did not happen by chance. What will we do with evidence we have?
