Every song has a composer, every book has an author, every car has a maker, every painting has a painter, and every building has a builder. So it isn't irrational to take this simple logic a little further and say that nature must have had a Maker. It would be irrational to believe that it made itself.

Summary

This quote argues that just as everything in the world has a creator or maker, it is logical to conclude that nature itself must have had a Maker. Drawing upon the examples of songs, books, cars, paintings, and buildings, the quote implies that it would be irrational to believe that nature is a result of chance or self-creation. Instead, it suggests that there must be a higher power responsible for the existence and intricacies of the natural world.
