Wow.

So I'm taking anatomy.

Actually, I'm almost done with it!

Sweet.

And I have a great teacher who is so intelligent and awesome at teaching.

Side note: Isn't it funny when a teacher gets a "you're good at teaching Mr.!" comment?
Shouldn't ALL teachers be skilled at teaching? Not just knowing? Seriously.

Okay,


So in anatomy,

it's a difficult class because you're constantly expected to know every bit of detail we go over.
And I really love it, everything we learn, it's so interesting.

And though I'm not as disciplined in my study habits as I should be, I'm still in awe every Monday and Wednesday.

Just,

man,

all the tiny tiny details, your cells make your liver grow and the things that feed them and the hormone that shuts that valve so you don't have acid running through your body and the cells who's primary job is to do that and . . . . . GEEZ!

I mean i could go on forever about the absolute detail we cover and how smart the little things inside our body are and how they constantly, second by second, save our body from dying and it's like,

. . . . we don't even bat an eye as to what is going on inside there.

most of it is involuntary so we really have little control over it, which is sad because i think it prevents a lot of people from being appreciative of there body and everything in it.

But the thing that gets me the most. . .


How. Someone convince me how. All of that can exist and do what it does . . . . by accident?

That some big rocks out in space bumped into each other by chance some organisms developed that by chance we created with the ability to divide that by chance turned into multi-celled things that by chance grew legs? a heart? a brain? an ability to love? to nurture?

if so, you're telling me that the bacteria I smash everyday under my shoe is SMARTER than me?

because it's been alive the longest?

You're telling me that human existence, an absolute wonder, and the way our bodies work is existing because of a string of good luck and chance that's been going on for a couple million years or so?

Damn. If I were bacteria I would've bet money on myself because those are amazing odds!


You're telling me that there is no possible way for any superior being to have had any part in creation?

That everything works so perfectly because it just ended up that way,

by chance.




That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.



When my professor explains certain processes within the human body, he always says "an mother nature realized this would happen so she put this in our bodies so these bad things wouldn't happen".


Mother nature?

So you believe in an old hag made of wind, who is probably a greenish color, but there's absolute no way for God to exist?


Some of the smartest people in the world . . . . are so dumb.


We put germs on a pedestal but God gets the cold shoulder.



Well,

if i've learned anything in anatomy, it's that God truly is outstanding.
Like, literally.

To think that he could create the body to do these thousands and thousands of things and created millions and millions of things to help it, with specific jobs and things to live and die for . . . there HAS to be a God!

NOBODY would have thought of ANY of that!

And I am in such awe of him day by day in an exciting way, because . . .

I'm learning more and more about God through teachings that deny him.

how cool is that?

He reveals himself through human denial . . . . in the public school system, nonetheless.


It's like,
there's no way around it.

It's kind of funny, actually.

But still, I'm amazed.


You know what's funny-er?

. . .

. . . my teacher is Buddhist!
