why do you assume that the laws of physics and chemistry itself are not intelligently designed ?

Don't believe I've ever heard anyone assume that. Still pitching straw, Jen. Have at it...you'll only end up with a mountain of the shit. Are you suggesting that they are...and if so...would you, at any point..be willing to, oh, idk....
...make your case ?

In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust.

Too simple, it turns out. At the point of singularity, all the laws of physics break down. I suggest you go read up on Planck time.

Still pursuing ignorance for it's own sake, are we?
yes right if the DNA had a different structure it would be different . but it was created to have a certain distinct structure a certain DNA . chemicals and atoms also are made up of complex structures , you are assuming that chemistry and atoms just created themselves without intelligence . does our computers , an unthinking entity , do this write its own code decide for itself what it will be ?

Quote:but it was created to have a certain distinct structure a certain DNA .
This is precisely what must be demonstrated.....you are assuming your conclusion, which is not valid logic. You have no reason to trust your conclusion.
Quote:chemicals and atoms also are made up of complex structures , you are assuming that chemistry and atoms just created themselves without intelligence .
Nope..and you've been corrected on this..at length, you even apologized a few pages ago for doing precisely this. Was your apology as insincere as your reasons for belief?
Quote:does our computers , an unthinking entity , do this write its own code decide for itself what it will be ?
Yet more straw. Respond to me...when you respond to me...for change. I understand that you're having difficulty figuring out how to do that...but there -are- people trying to help you. How long will you persist in this, btw....how many times will you repeat the same error? Is your entire belief in ID founded upon this error? Is there no way for you to argue ID without making this error? Doesn't that concern you?

oh really a computer developed by itself without human intervention when did that happen ?

All the time..look around you. How is it, do you think...that plants can follow the sun as it moves overhead? I'm sensing another argument from incredulity in your future. Surely you don't think that the same fairies that paint dew on the petals are hauling the leaves around with chains?

If you think that facts are pointless..I don't see how you're going to climb up out of the hole you've dug for yourself.
so you believe its a fact that unintelligent creations determine their own DNA then why dont they change their DNA and become something completely different . when is the bird outside my window going to decide to become a turtle?
