The debate between the exponents of the hypothesis of evolution and representatives of Christianity over the origin of the Universe is regularly being resumed. The original worldview is of vital importance for any person: without it they would be lost in the nonsensical host of various scientific theories, empirical data and philosophical speculations. In the ideal case science is designed to gain knowledge of nature while religion s designed to solve issues of the viewpoint upon the world as well as morality questions. However, from the time of The Enlightenment up to the present day atheists have been attempting to use science for the purpose of justifying their secular views and of opposing such views to Christianity. In the second part of this article we will regard several topics: 1) Can naturalistic theories predict the origin of space and time? 2) How do molecular machines in cells show evidence of special creation? 3) What is new about the proposed scientific argument for the existence of God? 4) The mathematical apparatus of the paradigm that we propose.
