Sir Isaac Newton

This most beautiful system of sun, planets, and comets could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful Being.

This thing [a scale model of our solar system] is but a puny imitation of a much grander system whose laws you know, and I am not able to convince you that this mere toy is without a designer and maker; yet you, as an atheist, profess to believe that the great original from which the design is taken has come into being without either designer or maker! Now tell me by what sort of reasoning do you reach such an incongruous conclusion?
