For me to believe the most complicated thing we know of (us) came about by some other means, flies in the face of all logic and all of our history of creating things.
Complexity is not how we detect design.
We detect design by contrasting it with nature.
Cars, clothes, etc do not occur naturally; humans, plants, other animals do.
Not to mention, that designed objects are engineered to be as simple as possible. Complexity is the sign of poor design, not good design.

Our sequence is:
1) Concept or Idea 2) implementation 3) production
Everything we do falls into one of those categories.
Ah!
So, since your company depends on multiple: designers, engineers, R&D, implementers, and production staff, then you are advocating for multiple: designers, engineers, R&D, implementers, and production staff for the universe.
So, you're a polytheist then.
Either that, or your using a flawed analogy.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
