Detecting design or intent in nature

[Jenny A]

The game "Chinese Whispers" is an evolutionary system because it has all the elements of an evolutionary system. Information is passed on from one person to the next. This is replication and heritability. Small changes or mutations occur in the message. Which are either selected to be passed on or not.

"Chinese Whispers" would not exist unless intellect exists. Intellect is required to either design the system or to be a selection component in the system.

Yes, but gossip is not a system designed to create change. But it does create change. No intellect designed human miscommunication. Chinese Whispers is designed to illustrate human miscommunication and it does.

There's no evidence that natural evolution is a system. Like changes through gossip, it happens because perfect is not possible. Once again. It's not a system, it's the natural consequence of the fact that DNA does not always replicate perfectly.
