Are Cubits Evidence For God's Existence?

[MrZetterlund]

In the Bible, the Cubit is the unit of measurment. One Cubit is from the length of your elbow to your finger tips. If you’ll notice, each section of your body is measured in Cubits! Did God build us in Cubits?

-Lol, I know this is vague ‘evidence’ and explainable in a hundred different ways, but is that any reason for this coincidence to be ruled out?

Eh…it’s simply just a relative measurement. Each person has a different “Cubit”, so to speak. I mean, you can also measure each section of the body in centimeters, feet, etc.

Yes, but I think his point is that it is only in the case of cubits that they come out in exact multiples - most of us, by contrast, have an extra half-inch in the width, height, or circumference somewhere.

hmmm?

Would you be willing to explain that more? Doesn’t it depend on how you divide the body? For example, a person’s head is not a cubit in length.

I think it certainly points to a designer, who used cubits as his unit of measure.

Well there are acceptions of course. Your body measures from the top of your thighs to your knees in cubits, and to your knees to your ankle. Then your torso is one cubit (Your forarm is the same length of your foot!)
