Question

Explain the following key quote about attitudes towards the existence of God.

All of the design which existed in the watch, exists in the works of nature; with the difference, on the side of nature, of being greater.” William Paley

Answer 1

I believe it's saying that nature points directly to the hand of God. There's no way everything we know of came into existence by accident or chance. It's just not probable.

Answer 2

Every indication of contrivance, every manifestation of design, which existed in the watch, exists in the works of nature; with the difference, on the side of nature, of being greater or more, and that in a degree which exceeds all computation."
