God’s creation is perfect. God is the best creator.
He perfected everything He made. He made humans in the best image. The process of perfection went through four stages: initial
creation, making due proportions, balancing, and making the best image. One view which is that the biological perfection of
the human body was created de novo and did not arise by evolution. Other views
say that biological perfection was achieved through various stages of evolution. All what was created has a purpose. This
applies to the whole organism or its constituent tissues and cells. Order, harmony, and perfection are part of predetermination
are not accidental. They could not have arisen by chance. The constant physical
laws operate in both inanimate and biological systems. Every human is unique
and is different from everybody else. The human is created in the best and optimal fashion and all biological systems are
optimal. Change is governed by natural laws. There is a balance between constancy and change. Cloning, genetic engineering,
and selective breeding are not de novo creations and can not be compared to God’s
creations. No human or any other being can create new life. Whereas God’s creation is perfect, human actions are imperfect.
MANIFESTATIONS OF PERFECTION IN ANATOMY
of perfection and optimality are found in all medical disciplines. In anatomy, for example, we find parity of gender, parity
of organs, symmetry( both circular and lateral symmetry), laterality of left and right, adaptation of structure to function,
consistency and predictability, and orderly change (staged, anticipated, and protective measures against mistakes).
MANIFESTATIONS OF PERFECTION IN PHYSIOLOGY and BIOCHEMISTRY
Manifestations of perfection and optimality in physiology, biochemistry, & pharmacology
are: the human organism functioning as a single entity, correlation between anatomy and
physiology, repeatability/replicability, specificity, specialization, co-operation, a hierarchy
of importance, information processing/perception, and reserve capacity in
organs and compensation for overload.
The complex human organism has few basic building blocks: amino acids,
monosacharides, and fatty acids. The discovery of the periodic table of elements is one of the strong indicators that there is order in the universe. Metabolism of
new synthetic molecules is a miracle of creation that needs appreciation. The finding that synthetic molecules can be metabolized by the biological systems
indicates the existence of a unifying scheme of creation based on physical laws in the universe.
