If it is intelligently designed then why is it so badly designed? Why do so many babies die because they have flawed DNA and get born deformed or without organs and they die quickly?
Why do so many people have flawed eyes and must wear glasses to see? Why are human back so weak for bipedal walking so they get pains in the back? Not to mention hemorrhoids for the same reasons. Why are testicles in humans outside and therefore uncomfortable and vulnerable? Not the evidence of intelligent designer.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
