Like a work of art that has no artist if the artist can't be seen.
Or a book that has no author, if he or she doesn't show up on demand by those who would like to burn the book.
People are not man-made artifacts, so your analogy as a point, is a failure. We know when we read a book or look at a painting that these things had a creator, because we already know that human beings create these objects. Everywhere we turn, we can see evidence that humans write books and paint paintings. There is no evidence OTOH that human beings, or any other forms of life, were designed. When theists come here thinking they’re arguing for intelligent design, all they’re actually doing is demonstrating their fundamental misunderstanding of the scientific underpinnings that best explain the diversity of life on earth. You’re going to have to do better than an argument from ignorance or personal incredulity.
