Nah let's fix this
Theist I believe for no reason complexity equals design that non-man-made objects are designed
Atheist: It doesn't show any signs of design in fact it looks just the way the undirected process should look not the perfection one would from a god
Theist: Well .....comes up with a bunch of excuses to as too why it's not perfect. None of which answer the actual objection
Atheist: Well guess that settles that

Theist: This complexity appears designed
Atheist: No because it's not perfect
Theist: No one said it was?
Atheist: Well, I'm going to pretend you did. So you lose.
Is that what anyone is arguing, or is that what you would prefer to argue against?
Quote:I agree with you fully. In fact, I vaguely remember research a few years ago in which "noise" was presented to theists and atheists and they were asked to determine which ones had faces. The conclusion was that theists tend to overestimating the presence of faces; but atheists tend to underestimate them.Overestimated according to whom?.
Quote:In other words, a theist might see faces where there are none. But an atheist might miss a face where there is one. So it's important to note there are cliffs on both sides of the aisle. (If I come across the study again I'll link it.)No theists see faces where they want to see them. Atheists rightly demand people delusionally claiming they see faces go about actually demonstrating their there. So no there is no sides to the aisle.
