Detecting design or intent in nature

[Heywood]

Ahhh, alright, so I'm curious, what do you mean by "being implemented?" In the context of biological evolution, I mean. As in, do you mean it's initiation? In which case, it would be very difficult to directly observe something that happened billions of years ago on this planet, given we lack time travel.

However, if we investigate the means by which it could have been started, you need only look into the Miller-Urey Experiment, which demonstrated the plausibility of the beginning of biological evolution on Earth being implemented without the need for intelligence.

We don't have to go back billions of years to see how evolutionary systems come into existence. We just have to observe evolutionary systems coming into existence today. Today, all the evolutionary systems coming into existence appear to require intellect. If you claim that the evolutionary system which resulted in us did not need an intellect in light of the fact that all evolutionary systems we observe coming into existence do require intellect.....you are making a special pleading.

If you can provide an observation of an evolutionary system coming into existence today, without needing an intellect, then you falsify the proposition that all evolutionary systems require intellects to be implemented and prove the proposition that not all evolutionary systems require intellects to be implemented. Your special pleading goes away.
