Can Fish Speak?
from Fishing for Men with Mack · host biblife
In this episode I show how an idea aimed against the existence of God has strengthened my faith in God. Richard Dawkins in his book "Outgrowing God" seeks to show that if there was a designer of the creation, he was not a very good designer. He shows that the reason why there are flaws in many natural phenomena is because of the process of evolution. In this way he shows no "God" could have designed what we see. One of his examples is the recurrent laryngeal nerve in humans that takes a detour around the heart instead of going straight to the voice box. He credits this "bad design" to our "evolution from fish". Is there more to this? Could this not be amazing design? How could Jesus have referred to the relationship between the voice and the heart more than 100 years before the role of the laryngeal nerve was discovered?
