THE LAWS OF PHYSICS POINT IRRESISTIBLY BACK TO THEIR CREATOR

I have become increasingly interested in the formulas of physics. I am not a scientist, but you don't need to be one to appreciate their elegance and simplicity.
Let's take the formula to calculate the force of gravity anywhere in the universe. Just say you weigh 100 pounds on earth. Now go above the earth twice the distance from the center of the earth to its surface, and you will only weigh 25 pounds!
How did we arrive at this? Well, we doubled the radius, squared it, and divided this into your weight. Amazingly, few ask:
∑ Why does it work the same way throughout the universe?
∑ Why the simplicity and precision of the formula? Why must the radius be precisely squared? And why, when divided into our earth-bound poundage, do when derive the exact answer?
∑ Would scientist have been able to discover this relationship if it had been complex? Certainly not if it was always changing!
Science is only possible if it rests on an unchanging and universal foundation. If our formulas changed from moment to moment, science would not be possible. What keeps them from changing in this world of molecules-in-motion? And what keeps them from changing as we travel to the next town?
Besides, what can account for their elegance and simplicity if they are not created and sustained by a super intelligent Being? If we answer, "natural forces," we simply push the same questions elsewhere to "forces," which then require even more explanations.
This brings us back to an eternal God, who requires no explanation but praise:
∑ “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.” (Psalm 19:1-2)
