I'm a Star Trek nerd, and every time I see the argument from design I think back to Star Trek IV when Spock essentially said that human arrogance makes them/us think that everything "must be meant for man."

It's an idiotic assumption to make.

Oh, that reminds me of one....

I can't find it right now, but someone made a meme out of it;

Basically a Theist was addressing an Atheist, with words to the effect of:

" How can you be so arrogant as to assume that the Universe and Earth was NOT created for Man's use? "
