Wonderful, so...it;s not by being created by us that something posseses intelligence.   Some of the things we create do but its not for us having created them that they do so.  Anyone or anything could have created them as they are and they would possess whatever they do.  If we didnt create those things, they would still be what thy are.

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!

No, if we didn't create them they would be what they originally were.  It's not that they contain intelligence but information.

CSI is an important aspect of science.  ID is used in multiple fields like archeology, anthopology, forensics, SETI,...

You have been deceived. Nobody in science uses CSI. Never have. Never will. Not even design proponents like Dembski, the one who "invented" CSI, uses it.

Thats silly. If some alien species designed computers as they are, they would still do exactly what they do.....would they not?

Are you telling me, now, that you were mistaken before....that computers do not possess intelligence?

How do you know who does and doesn't use CSI?

You are talking in circles.  Please be clear and concise.

Because CSI is an ill-defined bit of hocum which has no application. Show me one example of someone actually applying Dembski's framework of rejection regions, etc. to ANY scientific problem.
