It may seem like it to someone who doesn't understand it. Just because we don't know the mechanism of how it was designed (if we suppose it was) doesn't mean it doesn't have a rational explanation. I believe God is the designer. I also believe that God is understandable (or at least will be). It's not ignorance. It isn't "we can't explain it, so God" It is "we know of only one cause that is capable of explaining the specified sequences and other features of life and the universe, and that cause is intelligence." You are relying on faith to think that another cause will arise. (January 13, 2016 at 8:00 pm)Mr.wizard Wrote:(January 13, 2016 at 7:56 pm)AAA Wrote: Why not?

Not until you can adequately describe and present proof of god.

No, really you presented nothing except you believe life is designed and god is the designer, Oh and you think life looks like a digital code. Where is the science?

The theory has failed prediction after failed prediction, yet they will always mold the theory in distorted ways to try to account for the evidence. And intelligent design puts evidence first and conclusions after. Everyone has preconceived ideas about the world. Every single person. Even the scientists. It is science. You ought to read Signature in the Cell if you want to see why intelligent design is based on scientific grounds. RE: Intelligent Design

Quote:You are relying on faith to think that another cause will arise. Moving on to the next page in the liars for christ handbook huh? You've failed to astonish us with your brilliance and have now devolved into a "you too" mud slinging match. Remind me why I need another explanation again...faith be damned, what with already having an explanation in evolution and physics? There isn't even a gap here to cram your god into..in the first place. Give it up.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

We 3D creatures can be outside of a 2D spacial realm. In a similar way, something could conceivably be outside of the temporal realm also. Not a great answer, but I don't see why it couldn't. Spatial, actually, not spacial; but never mind. That's not the main point I want to get at. Can this "something" affect anything within the temporal realm, however minor?
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.'
