Dr. Lee Spetner refers to the emergence of a thinking human being
from a single cell:
The perfection of the eyes, the limbs, even the finger nails and the eye-
lashes. How did this perfect and complex organism develop from a sin-
gle cell? What kind of program orchestrates this development? Eyes that
see, ears that hear, a brain that can think and command the movement of
complex organs, have all developed from a single cell? That each of us
started as a single cell and developed into a functioning, thinking, human
being is mind-boggling. 113
Clearly, none of these extraordinary phenomena could be the

work of chance or of the cells themselves. That being so, to whom does
this intelligence belong, this power that directs all these events in the
cell, creates them in line with a specific purpose, and compresses bil-
lions of pieces of information into a space too small to be seen with the
naked eye? The only answer to that question is that our Almighty Lord
has created, with His infinite mercy, human beings with their present
orderly forms, and has bestowed their bodies' organization and the or-
der of the surroundings as a blessing. It is revealed in one verse that:
He has given you everything you have asked Him for. If you tried to
number Allah's blessings, you could
never count them. Man is
indeed wrongdoing,
ungrateful. (Surah
Ibrahim, 34)
