Flashback: Renowned Physicist's 'God' Announcement Spells Trouble for Atheists

Theoretical physicist Michio Kaku claimed he believes in intelligent design back in 2016, and his reasoning has caused a stir in the scientific community.
Ours is a universe of order, beauty, elegance and simplicity.
But Kaku explained that the universe didn’t have to be this way — it could have been ugly and chaotic.
In short, the order we see in the universe is evidence of a creator — God.
“I have concluded that we are in a world made by rules created by an intelligence,” the physicist said, according to Science World Report.
“Believe me, everything that we call chance today won’t make sense anymore,” he added.
“To me it is clear that we exist in a plan which is governed by rules that were created, shaped by a universal intelligence and not by chance.”
Kaku, one of the creators and developers of the revolutionary string theory, came to his conclusions with what he calls primitive semi-radius tachyons, which are theoretical particles that have the ability to “unstick” matter or the vacuum space between particles, leaving everything in the universe free from any influence from the surrounding universe.
The physicist has previously discussed the concept of God being like a mathematician:
These are concepts that Kaku has been publicly talking about for years.
In a 2010 article for Big Think, he wrote that his string theory was based on the idea that we are “reading the mind of God.”
“It’s based on music or little vibrating strings thus giving us particles that we see in nature,” he wrote.
“The laws of chemistry that we struggled with in high school would be the melodies that you can play on these vibrating strings,” Kaku added.
“The Universe would be a symphony of these vibrating strings and the mind of God that Einstein wrote about at length would be cosmic music resonating through this nirvana… through this 11 dimensional hyperspace — that would be the mind of God.”
These ideas will no doubt make atheist heads explode, because the more people like Kaku who come to accept the concept of intelligent design, the more foolish atheists will look.
