Lol again you miss the point  Dodgy

I skimmed it.  I am looking for a paper that answers my 4 questions or at least tries to address it.  These papers don't even come close.  I glanced at this one and it looks like more non-sensible propaganda.  The information in DNA is the key.  There is no explanation for it outside of design.

And if there is not an answer to you questions (yet) therefore god? That's caveman logic, fantasy boy.

Scientific method:

ID method: It looks designed / I can't believe this could happen without being designed, therefor it's designed.

It tells us nothing, explains nothing, has no practical applications, includes no testable hypotheses, makes no predictions and so isn't science. It's an abandonment of science for the argument from ignorance.

Quote:Intelligent design (ID) is a religious argument for the existence of God, presented by its proponents as "an evidence-based scientific theory about life's origins",[1][2] though it has been discredited as pseudoscience.[3][4][5]

No, there will never be a natural answer to those 4 questions because the answer is already found and it is designed.

Are you under the impression that theres no such thing as a natural design?  Wouldn;t that undermine the credibility of your belief in ID even further?  Not only is nothing specifically indicative of design.....the natural mechanism in order to accomplish some hypothetical design deosn;t even exist.
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!

And Carrier has already undermined the central ideal of supernatural design.

Put another way..if we're willing to conceptualize some biologocial teleology, a natural mechanism sufficient to produce those designs must exist in order for the divine to impose it;s will on it. The trouble being, if it does..then the imposition of a divine will is incidental, not necessary. If it doesn;t, than it;s not a biological intelligent design in any way, it operates by no known mechanism.

It;s a free floating miracle, untethered to population genetics or dna or specificity or generality or complexity or simplicity. May as well assert mud man and rib woman and be done with it.

Then what is your purpose for being here and making the argument? If nothing will change your mind (like so many christians of the past/present when faced with new information that does not fit with the god story) it seems pointless and a waste of time. It does not matter what pro/con arguments are put forward, for you there will always be god, for me there will never be. 

But if you want to continue to beat a dead horse be my guest. There is still golden ticket at the end. That is fantasy delusion.
