An excerpt from The Function of Reason by Alfred North Whitcomb
''Again consider the voyage of the battleship Utah round the South Americancontinent. Consider first the ship itself. We are asked to believe that the concourse of atoms, of iron, and of nitrogen, and of other sorts of chemical elements, into the form of the ship, of its armour, of its guns, of its engines, of its ammunition , of its stores of food, - that this concourse was purely the outcome of the same physical laws by which the ocean waves aimlessly beat on the coasts of Maine. There could beno more aim in one episode than in the other. The activity of the shipbuilders was merely analogous to the rolling of the shingle on the beach.''
