William Paley was a Christian apologist of the eighteenth to nineteenth centuries, best known for his "blind watchmaker" argument. He asserted that "No animal, for instance, can have contrived its own limbs and senses; can have been the author to itself of the design with which they were constructed." This argument, made at a time when notions of evidence and probablility were less disciplined than in modern times, was not really overturned until Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species.
Paley asserted the goodness of God, in his creation, based on the beneficial nature of the arrangements in species. His argument took something that exists, assigned it a value, and then projected that value back to the supposed Designer of the species, while ignoring evidence to the contrary. Paley simply took his perceptions and valuations of the existing world and assigned them to his Deity.
