       To start, I want to take us back to the far reaches of the universe. If we are actually able to go that far, and then come around back to our own solar system, we would undoubtedly see a wide-range of sites. There would be many stars, constellations, galaxies, etc, that we would pass on our journey here. Much of what we would see has immense beauty, and all of it has elements of design. Solar systems, for instance, are set up with a star or stars, and there is a planet or planets (or even other objects) which revolve around the sun. The setup screams design. Most of the time, the planets move in circles or ovals around the sun, and usually on a single plain, which in and of itself is very interesting. We don't see the chaos that at least I would expect to see if it all came about randomly or naturally. Once we reach our own solar system, we realize that the earth is positioned in just the right spot, as many scientists will tell us, that makes it suitable, or habitable, for life. If it were just a little closer to the Sun, or maybe just a little further away, life would be greatly endangered. We would either burn or freeze.
