It's like when the people of Pharaoh saw sorcery of sorcerers and then thought no matter what miracles Moses did, it must be of the same thing and not proofs.
They read in text books about evolution of black moths over white moths cause of smoke industrial thing and what not, and can't see design no matter what.
They think giraffe necks getting taller, and then can't see the concept of irreducible complexity of systems in nature.
They won't see this no matter how much you repeat it. If they going to get a AHA moment, it won't be from us, but love of God stirring them to reflect and perceive.
I think you are right, most of them seem not to get it. I just hope there are one or more that do have that moment where they get it. Thanks for posting in this thread. Wasn't sure how many theists were on this forum.

If that's the work of a "designer," I'm not impressed.
There is probably an unknown reason for the detour like all the other fallacy design issues. Plus, we are intended to be flawed, decay, and die. That is part of the fall.

Oh man, I wasn't using giraffe necks as proof. I was using it as proof that text books teach simple examples of evolution, like a giraffe neck developing over time to be taller.
And they don't dare to even mention irreducible complexity of systems and make us think how to solve those issues. And it's obvious why. There is no solution to irreducible complexity.
It proves design in many respects because of a paradox.
Yes, it definitely does.
