Five atheist miracles

This research:

...has shown, by the almost unbelievable complexity of the arrangements which are needed to produce (life), that intelligence must have been involved.

That is, only an incredibly intelligent designer could account for the information systems in living things.

Well-known American atheist philosopher, Thomas Nagel said,

What is lacking, to my knowledge, is a credible argument that the story [of cosmic evolution] has a nonnegligible probability of being true. There are two questions. First, given what is known about the chemical basis of biology and genetics, what is the likelihood that self-reproducing life forms should have come into existence spontaneously on the early earth, solely through the operation of the laws of physics and chemistry? (See later for discussion of his second question.)

The scientific knowledge of life grows daily, and as it does the prospects of a naturalistic (materialistic/atheistic) explanation for its origin recede into the distance. The origin of life is another miracle. 'Stuff happens'? More magic.

The origin of life demands a super-intelligent cause, such as the Creator-God revealed in the Bible.

4.Origin of the diversity of life (Design? What design?)

The origin of life is only the beginning of the problem for the materialist. Along with other atheistic biologists, Richard Dawkins has spent his life trying to deny that living things exhibit supernatural design. In the book that 'put him on the map', he wrote,

Biology is the study of complicated things that give the appearance of having been designed for a purpose.

The diversity of life is a huge problem. How did a microbe change itself into every living thing on earth, ranging from earwigs to elephants, from mites to mango trees? For almost a hundred years, mutations and natural selection, the mechanisms of 'neo-Darwinism', or 'the modern synthesis', have been said to explain this diversity of life. However, with our modern knowledge of living things, this has proved useless as an explanation.

In July 2008, 16 high profile evolutionists met, by invitation, in Altenburg, Austria. They had come because they realized that mutations and natural selection did not explain the diversity of life, and they had come together to discuss this crisis in evolutionary biology. The only consensus was that there is a major problem, a crisis.

Thomas Nagel (continuing from the earlier quote) put it this way:
