Intelligent Design

[God of Mr. Hanky]

So why aren't you helping NASA look for it on Mars, instead of shitting all over their efforts to sort out the truth?


There's a very simple way of finding out: Dive to the bottom of a mid-Atlantic hydrothermal vent and collect samples of the many fish, crustaceans and eels which survive there off food sources which are not based on photosynthesis, but chemosynthesis from highly toxic hydrogen sulfide. Take them home, put them in your aquarium, and feed them OTC fish food, then see how long they last.

Can't afford to rent a deep-sea submersible or robo-diver? Here's an easy way - take a fish out of water anywhere, and see how long it lasts out of the water.

Well, why else, short of utter desperation, would you post anything nearly so stupid as that idea?



Ok, first it was the fine-tuning argument based on asserted impossibilities, and now with that can of shit unpacked for you life is just too complicated. YOU are the one who's complicated (profoundly so), and to say something so pathetically weak as that shows how desperate you are to go on believing what you say.

Life is not too complicated, it simply evolves in any way that it can, and we probably don't know all the possible ways that it can do this on our own planet. It does not look like design, not one bit. It looks like what happened because it had to, just as the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics calls for it. Life increases entropy (now there's your meaning of it for you)!

That is SO not what I meant by designed to live everwhere. I didn't mean every organism was able to live in each environment, I meant that there were organisms designed for each environment.

Well, why should a perfect and all-powerful creator, who can tweak anything to do anything want to bend around all the different environments, when he could either make them all the same, or all species capable of surviving from any available energy resources or raw materials?
