million-dollar-bill tracts to four Muslim women and a little girl who was traveling with them. They were grateful, and told me that I looked like Einstein.
As they passed me on the plane, I heard them say, “There’s Einstein.” I have to say, it puffed me up a little, to think that they perceived an intellectual likeness. When we landed in Los Angeles,the little girl walked passed my seat and said in a friendly (and loud) voice “Goodbye, Frankenstein.”
A friend even wrote a song about me, in which there was the line: “When you see a man riding a boy’s bike; when you see an Einstein look-alike…”
There’s only one thing in which I believe I trump the man. In 1982 I found something in the Scriptures that is infinitely more important and has far greater repercussions than the Theory of Relativity. So I think I have more in common with the great genius than most. One other thing: Intellectually, I’m not worthy to wash his socks. But I guess you already figured that. He also said:
I’m not an atheist and I don’t think I can call myself a pantheist. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many different languages. The child knows someone must have written those books. It does not know how. The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangement of the books but doesn’t know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God.” 8

I T IS COMMONLY accepted that the natural phenomenon of evolution had no end in mind when it created all living things. So it was fortunate for us that gravity just happened to be around to stop everything from spinning into space. But if evolution had nothing to do with gravity, who or what created it? “Chance” or “accident” is too big a leap of blind faith for me. The evolutionist’s version of “just believe” isn’t good enough. I want verifiable, scientific facts.
And while we are looking for facts, I would like evolutionists to explain to me where the other laws that govern the universe came from: i.e., the laws of thermodynamics, of motion, of heat. Why don’t we see chaos everywhere instead of order?
Of course the “scientific” answer will be “We don’t yet know where they came from, but one thing we are sure of, God didn’t create them.”
It was Newton’s law of gravitation that showed science that the gravitational constant is in direct proportion to the productof the masses divided by the square of the distance apart. However, that doesn’t explain the nature of gravity. Despite its mystery, the brilliant Newton attributed gravity’s origin to the genius of Almighty God. So do I.

Well, if there’s no intelligent design, where did gravity come from? Where did thermodynamics come from? Where did the laws of motion and mechanics and fluid motion come from?…I could easily see evolution in species, but where did the great laws of the universe and of movement, the governing universe come from? And I thought, well, that’s a really good question and yet, if you even ask that question, you can be disciplined in the academic setting. 2
I appreciated his “you can be disciplined in the academic setting” for asking. I have been mocked by evolutionists for asking “where” gravity came from. Their answer is that it didn’t come from anywhere. It just is.

Have you ever taken the time to study closely the human hand? Let’s set aside the issue of whether or not it happened by a process of evolution or was the result of intelligent design and just look at it for what it is.
The hand is a marvel of incredible technology. It is fearfully and wonderfully made. It can be used for brute force, like the wielding of a hammer, or for the intricate threading of a tiny
