and complacent in the world order of today. Thomas Aquinas’s intelligent designer argument and David Hume’s response Thomas Aquinas’s argument is based on the premise that the universe came into existence with a purpose and design. Therefore, there must be an intelligent designer who brought it into being. The term teleological came from the Greek word “telos” which means, “goal” or “end”. In the “fifth way”, Aquinas’s begins the design argument by stating, “things in the world are always…
The watch represents the world and because of its intelligent design, there must be an intelligent designer. Paley argues that “observed and understood–the inference we think is inevitable, that the watch must have had a maker–that there must have existed, at some time and at some place or other, an artificer or artificers…

function. As a watch is the handiwork of a watchmaker, nature is the product of a designing intelligence, or God. Thus goes William Paley’s ‘Watchmaker analogy’ from his book Natural Theology (cit) that started off the modern debate on Intelligent Design. Intelligent Design is the belief that the complexity found in nature could not simply have been the result of natural selection and evolution, but had to have been designed by a superior creator…
point of view is entirely different. Paley believes that the universe has been produced by a creator that is why it functions the way it does today. Behe believes something very similar to Paley; He believes that the universe was created by an “Intelligent Designer”. Descartes on the other hand, has a different point of view, he refers to it as a mechanical universe. Paley and Behe’s theories are based on a creator also knows as God when Descartes as well defends God as a creator but sees the…
architects Jack Lynn (1926- 2013) and Ivor Smith (born 1926). Their design was very ambitious for the era, 1,000 new homes were to be built. The homes were organised as three types of apartments to replace the poor quality terraces. It was said to be the first effective action to remove a community from the horrific and poor terraces. The unique shared walkways were tribute to Le Corbusier’s principle on residential housing design, Unité d'Habitation. In the 1980’s the estate had the status of…
like humans so it is used in making games, toys, computers, in the internet where the searching engines and absolutely in robotics. AI researchers and textbooks define the field of artificial intelligence as "the study and design of intelligent agents" in which an intelligent agent is a system that imagine its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of success. What is the difference between the artificial intelligence…
The Brand ACNE Studios was founded in 1996 as part of the creative collective ACNE, which stands for "Ambition to Create Novel Expressions".

high value on academics, as most likely I will be pursuing a PhD at some point of my life. I love learning new things, and I love that God has given me the opportunity to expand my knowledge. He even commands us to do so in Proverbs 18:15, “An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge” (Prov. 18:15). This intelligence has to be well rounded, but also flooded with goals in order to become successful in an academic career. Applying to mechanical engineering,…
Fasten Your Seatbelt Dorothy, ‘Cause Kansas is Going Bye-bye The verge of artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more real each passing day. With the vast amount of scientists undertaking its development, innovations are being crafted for an assortment of field use. Government foundations pursue the task of simulating the brain and mapping it. The Obama administration is funding the BRAIN initiative that has the goal of mapping the activity of every neuron within the human brain. Also, the Human…
