On today's episode of the egg timer the topic is William Paley's watchmaker analogy to prove the existence of God.  Paley suggests that a person who finds a watch on a beach is right to think that someone designed the watch.  And likewise by analogy someone who realizes the complexity of a person is right to think that people are designed and that their designer is God.  Does this analogy work to prove the existence of God?  Tune in as that question is explored.
