True, many scientists, while believing that the universe had a
beginning, do not accept the statement that "God created."
Nevertheless, some now admit that it is difficult to ignore the
evidence of some kind of intelligence behind everything. Physics
professor Freeman Dyson comments: "The more I examine the universe and
study the details of its architecture, the more evidence I find that
the universe in some sense must have known that we were coming."

Dyson goes on to admit: "Being a scientist, trained in the habits of
thought and language of the twentieth century rather than the
eighteenth, I do not claim that the architecture of the universe
proves the existence of God. I claim only that the architecture of the
universe is consistent with the hypothesis that mind plays an
essential role in its functioning." His comment certainly betrays the
skeptical attitude of our time. But putting that skepticism aside, one
notes there is a remarkable harmony between modern science and the
Bible's statement that "in the beginning God created the heavens and
the earth."—Genesis 1:1.
