Leading A Spiritual Life

is, if there is design, there must be a designer. This
argument is known as the argument from design.
In the post-scientific period, many findings gave rise
to new developments in the subject. In the first half
of the twentieth century, the Big Bang theory was
propounded, which has now gained general acceptance
among scientists. The Big Bang theory states that the
universe began about 13 billion years ago. This provides
further evidence for the existence of God, because
where there is a beginning there is a beginner. Without
a beginner, the beginning is inconceivable.

Ancient philosophers believed that matter was
eternal, that is, the universe had existed forever – it had
neither a beginning nor an end. This concept had no
place for a Creator. But the discovery of the Big Bang
has proved this notion untrue.
Modern science has made another important
discovery which is in favour of the existence of God.
Science has discovered an invisible world apart from the
visible world. This invisible world is that of the subatomic
particles. This new scientific finding has shown that
the demand for a visible God is unwarranted. This
is because with our two eyes we cannot see anything,
even the visible, as after reaching a point the ‘visible’
also becomes invisible. This fact has been explained in
detail by Sir Arthur Eddington in his book, Science and
the Unseen World (1929).
