The Master Mind of our time, Albert Einstein and Intelligent Design


Secular media and authors hate the phrase, "Intelligent Design". It is as if we as human kind won't give a supernatural Being any credit to our very existence even though we have to shut our ears, eyes and mouth in the very face of design in every facet and molecule of life around us. But I believe we are seeing a slow change in this, there is an awakening happening. Paul Charles William Davies also recognizes this,
“Scientists are slowly waking up to an inconvenient truth - the universe looks suspiciously like a fix. The issue concerns the very laws of nature themselves. For 40 years, physicists and cosmologists have been quietly collecting examples of all too convenient "coincidences" and special features in the underlying laws of the universe that seem to be necessary in order for life, and hence conscious beings, to exist. Change any one of them and the consequences would be lethal. Fred Hoyle, the distinguished cosmologist, once said it was as if "a super-intellect has monkeyed with physics"
Coming to the point I want to make is that the greatest MIND of our time, that of Albert Einstein, also acknowledged the fact that design shows more than just creation by mere change - even if todays progressives and enlightened want to have it otherwise.
Einstein said in an essay entitled "The Religiousness of Science," which you can find in a collection of his essays published in English under the title "The World As I See It":
"The scientist is possessed by the sense of universal causation....His religious feeling takes the form of a rapturous amazement at the harmony of natural law, which reveals an INTELLIGENCE of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection. This feeling is the guiding principle of his life and work, in so far as he succeeds in keeping himself from the shackles of selfish desire" (Updike 2007: 77)
Please note how Einstein sees the 'harmony of natural law' and states that this REVEALS: Intelligence. You really have to be blind not to see this!
Einstein wrote in a 1930 essay, "What I Believe,"
To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there is something that our minds cannot grasp, whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly: this is religiousness. In this sense, and in this sense only, I am a devoutly religious man (Isaacson 2007: 47).
Maybe Einstein didn't go to church, but He acknowledged his Creator in contrast to the 'great thinkers' of our postmodern time.
According to this intellectual, there is no space in time for accidents, even if Hawking wants it so.
The religious inclination lies in the dim consciousness that dwells in humans that all nature, including the humans in it, is in no way an accidental game, but a work of lawfulness that there is a fundamental cause of all existence (Isaacson 2007: 46).

Albert Einstein believed in a "God who reveals Himself in the harmony of all that exists" (Isaacson 2007: 44)
