That's the point of this thread: to point out how deeply out of synch with reality any claim of intelligent design really is.
Amateurish? Enlighten me, oh great and holy Esquilax, how you would have made the human nervous system, created the stars, or formed galaxies. Or simply tell me how to create a blade of grass, since your knowledge and wisdom is everlasting.
LOL. Attacking him for not being able to create stars doesn't diminish his point. The fact that many things found in nature are convoluted, unnecessary, and vestigial is a good argument against these things being "intelligently designed". Would a good plumber criss-cross a huge mess of pipes making things complicated, or would he have one going straight where it needs to go? If the world was "intelligently designed", what's with all the inefficiency? What's the excuse?
