Just as a question for someone educated thoroughly on evolution... What's the explanation for the difference in gender?
I'm not thoroughly educated on evolution. There are others here far more educated than I. Hopefully they will chime in. My field is medicine. Try this for a start:

Just as a question for someone who clearly has internet access...You do realize you can look up these things yourself, correct?

Yep, but it does not appear that they are.

I think the neil degrasse tyson argument is about the eye. If that's the one your referring to then that should suffice. If the designer is Omnipotent then why would he fuck up the eye? Anything else is just more fuck ups.

If life was intelligent designed, how was it designed? By what mechanism? ID is one big argument from ignorance. It offers no alternative to real scientific explanation, preferring instead pathetic "tide goes in tide goes out" non-arguments.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Did you just double post on purpose to show that we are not intelligently designed?
I'm sure you did! Nice strategy!

Theists came up with the term intelligent design, and last I checked the majority of them were not all that smart.

ID says it is not possible for the universe to form and develop, yet ID insists that it is possible for a creator to just magically appear.
Yep, that's smart. They gots good brains. Must be that there cipherin' they learnt.
