Ah, a quote from the idiotic William Lane Craig.
I have no idea why you think this might impress anyone here. We all know WLC is a dishonest snake oil salesman already.
In any event, you now find yourself claiming that your god is trivially simple and not at all complex and furthermore, that complexity can arise from simplicity. Accordingly, ID is false, since it claims that complexity cannot possibly arise from simpler origins.

“No matter what men think, abortion is a fact of life. Women have always had them; they always have and they always will. Are they going to have good ones or bad ones? Will the good ones be reserved for the rich, while the poor women go to quacks?”
