   It has been said that there are two books that tell us about the   
   existence of God—the “book” of creation, or nature around us, and the   
   Bible. They have been the basis for belief for millions of people past   
   and present. For example, a king of the 11th century B.C.E., impressed   
   by what he observed in the starry heavens, exclaimed poetically: “The   
   heavens are declaring the glory of God; and of the work of his hands the   
   expanse is telling.” (Psalm 19:1) In the 20th century, an astronaut,   
   looking at the spectacular view of the earth from his spacecraft as it   
   circled the moon, was moved to recite: “In the beginning God created the   
   heaven and the earth.”—Genesis 1:1, KJ.   
      
     These two books, however, are under attack by those who claim no   
   belief in God. They say that scientific investigation of the world   
   around us has proved that life came into existence not by intelligent   
   creation but by blind chance and the haphazard process of evolution.   
   They argue, therefore, that there was no Creator and that it follows   
   that the question of God is superfluous. Furthermore, many of them   
   believe that the Bible is simply out-of-date and illogical, hence, not   
   worthy of belief. Consequently, for them, there is no longer any basis   
   for belief in the existence of God. Is all of this true? What do the   
   facts show?
