Simply because that is a claim of the theory. Design is intelligence-dependent, meaning that it obviously varies across the gradient of species. But Intelligent Design as a theory encompasses everything because that is what it predicts that gods, or simulations, can do.

Are you describing mental acts because Belacqua and I discussed it earlier? Or because you are making a new argument? I ask because I've obviously covered many of these things, but I have no way of knowing whose keeping up and whose catching the tail-end of it. That said, I'm not looking for evidence, I'm looking for falsification.
