no need for an orderer. Analogies depend on who decided on them‚ therefore he believed they do not work. Order is a necessary part of the universe but this self-sustaining order could very well be the product of chance. “We have no evidence of world making”. To show this he uses different analogies. His ship analogy suggests that to design and build a ship you need many workers‚ so the universe may well have been created by a whole team of gods.
