But I'm talking about a full word written clearly or a sentence, something as simple as "Hello Esquilax" on a rock face. You can them assume that no one wrote that but it's purely nature and your mind's perception?

But, so what? DNA is not a language.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
