Romans 1:20 reads, “for since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his external power and divine nature have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.” The verse captures God’s infinite role in every form of creation and its eventual evolution. Atheist scientists and evolutionists assert that “through a random process” the building blocks of life find a coherent formation. However, the argument here is how the odds of such a “random process” would form a complex and consistent organism like a molecule or even a polypeptide or polysaccharide chain. Scientific research's difficulty in trying to find the right drug combination for a ‘simple’ condition like flu or even genetic modifications like gene realignment or cloning, shows just how much role God has in chemistry.
Going deeper into the molecular construct and specifically into stereochemistry, one evidences the role of God in chemistry very clearly. Fascinating evidence is that ethyl alcohol and methyl ether have the same formula, and atomic weights and have atoms in the same proportion, yet against all the odds they differ in structure. This is similar to enantiomers, which are mirror images of each other, and are both most likely to form in nature. However, one enantiomer surprisingly and unexplainably occurs in plants while the other in animals and there has not been a case where the ‘plant enantiomer’ has occurred in animals or vice versa.

The probabilities and improbabilities of chemistry capture the role of a higher power in individual instances that drive the primary chemical process. It reiterates Psalm 8:3-4 which shows God’s plan and role in minute details that define the organic and inorganic structure of our world, and that beyond it. Scientists and experts lack a definite explanation as to why things happen the way they do. In its formulation and individual chemical processes, chemistry is a piece of practical evidence as to God’s role and relation to chemistry as a subject and as a process.
