God exists

Astronomers and scientists are mostly in agreement that the universe had a beginning. It is also a fact of nature that life only comes from previous existing life. Life has never been proven to come from nonliving matter via the scientific model. Therefore, life never came to be by chance via nonliving matter, but alway came from precious life. There could never be a time when life didn't exist, otherwise, the first life would be a product of some nonliving entity, but we don't find this in nature; if it isn't found in nature then it is supernatural, and hence, the spontaneous generation of life from non-living material would have to be a supernatural act. But since we know that all living things come from previous living things, we know then that life comes only from life. But the universe had a beginning, which means that life predates the universe. It mean that before there was a universe, there was life. Any life outside of the universe, is by definition outside of all nature, and if it is outside of nature it is by definition supernatural; hence, the supernatural does indeed exist, and that supernatural entity is God. The existence of objective moral attributes proves there is a God. By objective I mean independent of human opinion. For example, its not just our opinion that the holocaust was wrong, it really was wrong. Even if Hitler had won the war and had killed off everyone on earth who disagreed with him so that the only humans alive were those approving of the holocaust, not even this universal acceptance of genocide would make it right. It would still be an evil act even if the whole world thought it wasn't. If though, God does not exist, then objective moral values do not exist. This means that there is no real right or wrong, just our opinions. We therefore, have no right to tell the Nazis that what they did to the Jews was wrong. They were following the laws of their state, and people of a foreign country have no say in the matter. Who are were to condemn? Without God, there is no ultimate authority to say that rape is really wrong, or that the holocaust is an evil act. If there is no Creator, then the other option is that it was by evolution that we came to be, and we are all just animals evolving. If that is the case, then there really is no objective morality, and we are just fooling ourselves to condemn rape and murder. When a male lion grabbed hold of an unwilling female and forces sex on her, he doesn't rape her! When a lion eats a zebra, he doesn't murder that zebra. If we are all just animals, then murder is just survival of the fittest as it has always been throughout our animal history. There is no rational reason on the evolutionary model why we should condemn these practices. Further, if God exists, then we can make sense of why we help others even when we get nothing out of it. But on a model of evolution via natural selection, there is no naturalistic reason why we should risk our lives for the sake of stangers who cannot return any benefit to us. If we are made in God's image, having his qualities, then we understand why we have these attributes, but without God, non of this makes sense. The only known source of meaningful information is the mind. The complex information in the cell and DNA must have come from somewhere, and science deals with inference to the best explanation. Nature produces patterns, like waves of the sea making ripples in the sand, but it doesn't produce meaningful information; so if you see the words "I love you" written in the sand, you can be sure an intelligent mind is behind it. Embedded in our DNA is far more complex information than the words "I love you." The information in the DNA, cell, and so forth must be the product of an intelligent designer. However, since the blueprint for building a protein is stored in the nucleus of the cell and the actual site for building proteins is outside the nucleus, help is needed to get the coded blueprint from the nucleus to the "building site." RNA (ribonucleic acid) molecules provide this help. RNA molecules are chemically similar to those of DNA, and several forms of RNA are needed to do the job. Take a closer look at these extremely complex processes for making our vital proteins with the help of RNA. Work starts in the cell's nucleus, where a section of the DNA ladder unzips. This allows RNA letters to link to the exposed DNA letters of one of the DNA strands. An enzyme moves along the RNA letters to join them into a strand. Thus DNA letters are transcribed into RNA letters, forming what you might call a DNA dialect. The newly formed chain of RNA peels away, and the DNA ladder zips up again. After further modification, this particular type of message-carrying RNA is ready. It moves out of the nucleus and heads for the protein-production site, where the RNA letters are decoded. Each set of three RNA letters forms a "word" that calls for one specific amino acid. Another form of RNA looks for that amino acid, grabs it with the help of an enzyme, and tows it to the "construction site." As the RNA sentence is being read and translated, a growing chain of amino acids is produced. This chain curls and folds into a unique shape, leading to one kind of protein. And there may well be over 50,000 kinds in our body. Even this process of protein folding is significant. In 1996, scientists around the world, "armed with their best computer programs, competed to solve one of the most complex problems in biology: how a single protein, made from a long string of amino acids, folds itself into the intricate shape that determines the role it plays in life. . . . The result, succinctly put, was this: the computers lost and the proteins won. . . . Scientists have estimated that for an average-sized protein, made from 100 amino acids, solving the folding problem by trying every possibility would take 1027 (a billion billion billion) years."—The New York Times. Have you an idea of how long it takes for a chain of 20 amino acids to form? About one second! And this process goes on constantly in our body cells, from our head to our foot and everywhere in between. What is the point? While other factors too numerous to mention are involved, the teamwork needed to produce and maintain life is awe-inspiring. And the term "teamwork" hardly describes the precise interaction required to produce a protein molecule, since a protein needs information from DNA molecules, and DNA needs several forms of specialized RNA molecules. Nor can we ignore the various enzymes, each performing a distinct and vital role. As our body makes new cells, which happens billions of times a day and without our conscious guidance, it requires copies of all three components—DNA, RNA, and protein. You can see why the magazine New Scientist comments: "Take away any one of the three and life grinds to a halt." Or take this a step further. Without a complete and functioning team, life could not have come about. Who programmed these things to work? Is it reasonable that each of those three molecular team players arose spontaneously at the same time, in the same place, and so precisely tuned that they could combine to work their wonders? Yeah right! Interviewed in a documentary film, Professor Maciej Giertych, a noted geneticist from the Institute of Dendrology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, answered: "We have become aware of the massive information contained in the genes. There is no known way to science how that information can arise spontaneously. It requires an intelligence; it cannot arise from chance events. Just mixing letters does not produce words." He added: "For example, the very complex DNA, RNA, protein replicating system in the cell must have been perfect from the very start. If not, life systems could not exist. The only logical explanation is that this vast quantity of information came from an intelligence." The origin of life requires an intelligent source
