When one of the world’s most renowned atheist philosophers—a man who debated God with CS Lewis at Oxford 50 years ago and was adamant that God could not possibly exist—when such a man does a complete U-turn and admits he was wrong, we have to sit up and think.
Such a man is Professor Antony Flew, a noted scholar who straddled the worlds of philosophy and science and who died at the age of 87 in 2010.
What makes his conversion even more compelling is that his is not a religiousconversion in the sense of being “born again”, or of suddenly being touched by a vague and woolly “mysticism”. On the contrary, this distinguished philosopher’s conversion is based on startling new discoveries in biochemistry and DNA science that are impossible to ignore. These recent developments in science show that the unbelievable complexity of the physical world not only makes it unlikely, but also impossible, that all this complexity should have arisen by mere chance and the hit-and-miss workings of evolution.
In other words, the only possible explanation for this “integrated complexity” is the existence of an Intelligent Designer.
