All variety of created objects which represent order and life in the universe could happen only by the willful reasoning of its original Creator, whom I call the 'Lord God.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A universe with a creator would be a totally different kind of universe, scientifically speaking, than one without.
Nothing exists from eternity but God, and God is not the matter or a part of any creature, but only the maker.
The universe is so unique and perfect that it could not have originated by chance but was divined by flawless, creative design.
We cannot suppose therefore that God has made an order of beings, with such mental qualities and powers, for the sole purpose of being used as beasts, or instruments of labour.
Everything that happens is determined by God.
Even if there isn't a God, I believe in the one we've created.
And when the world is created, it is created in such a way that those eternal objects of God's loving wisdom become actualities - interacting with one another, relating to God in the finite realm.
Except for a God who sits down after the universe begins, all other gods conflict with the assumptions of science.
It is a curious thing: man, the centre and creator of all science, is the only object which our science has not yet succeeded in including in a homogeneous representation of the universe. We know the history of his bones, but no ordered place has yet been found in nature for his reflective intelligence.
Natural objects, for example, must be experienced before any theorizing about them can occur.
