"Most of the doctors I worked with for years and years and years were atheists," he said. "This whole issue of the complexity of the body just doesn't really come up because you're so busy taking care of grandma, you don't sit back and go, 'The heart or the kidney or whatever is so wonderful.'"
As for Mitchell's own observations about the human body, he laid out a compelling case for why it all cannot possibly be the result of an accident.
