Muslim creationism part 5

This is part of a series about the book “The Creation of the Universe” by Adnan Oktar. View Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4.

Chapter 4: The order in the skies

More fine tuning argument. If space was much more spread out, supernova dust may have been too diffuse to re-form into third generation solar systems like ours. And we wouldn’t be here to notice. If space was less spread out then apparently Earth’s orbit would be distorted by nearby stars. And we wouldn’t be here to notice. We are here, so evidently neither of those two situations happened in our universe.

The next section on entropy is rather confusing. Thermodynamic Entropy is a very specific construct about the behaviour of heat over time in a closed system. It is often muddied with vague notions of order and disorder, and confused with Information Entropy (which is defined in terms of disorder or unpredictability). Here Oktar is talking about an abandoned car rusting, and a cave filling with mud and somehow from that jumps to the conclusion that the universe must have been created by an intelligent agency.

More fine tuning argument. If gravity weren’t balanced by the centrifugal force in our solar system, our planet might have flown off into space or collapsed into the sun. Both fates undoubtedly happened to some parts of our solar system (and still will happen to some in the future, especially comets that aren’t in stable orbits). Shockingly though, we happen to be on a part of the solar system that didn’t either fry or freeze billions of years ago.

Obviously, therefore, Oktar concludes that Allah set it all up like this just for us.
