Paley argues that the complexity and functionality of a watch clearly shows that it was made by a designer. Animals are also complex and functional‚ therefore‚ Hume does not change the argument

I will begin by considering Plato’s argument for the

If comparing the movie to current politics‚ much can be tied to the wicked witch. The witch has many of the flying monkeys which abide to all of her commands. Using this‚ the monkeys represent the US Congress in which senators and state representatives do what the president says. This further makes the house of congress seem like puppets on the larger scale. The monkeys also did not like the witch and they were excited when Dorothy melted her. This is analogous for the way the US is never pleased
