Sophistication and information
Rocks and dna are both sophisticated, and both contain information. That doesn;t mean that their design and the design of a 747 are equal. We understand how sophistication can be produced by unintellignt processes. While that handily accounts for dna and rocks..it doesn;t account for a 747.

I am not talking about the rock. Rocks are not specified and complex. I am talking about sophisticated systems like DNA, the human body,... The only reason rocks are designed is because the entire universe is designed.

The design of a rock or of dna is not the same as the design of a 747. Again, I;m asking you why you think that you're more like a 747 than rocks or dna.

Bullshit.
The court in Kitzmiller v Dover found otherwise.
Quote:4.
Whether ID is Science
After a searching review of the record and applicable caselaw, we find that
while ID arguments may be true, a proposition on which the Court takes no
position, ID is not science. We find that ID fails on three different levels, any one
of which is sufficient to preclude a determination that ID is science. They are: (1)
ID violates the centuries-old ground rules of science by invoking and permitting
supernatural causation; (2) the argument of irreducible complexity, central to ID,
employs the same flawed and illogical contrived dualism that doomed creation
science in the 1980's; and (3) ID’s negative attacks on evolution have been refuted
by the scientific community. As we will discuss in more detail below, it is
additionally important to note that ID has failed to gain acceptance in the scientific
community, it has not generated peer-reviewed publications, nor has it been the
subject of testing and research.
Go peddle your theology elsewhere. We are on to you. And so is the court.

So rocks are designed when it's convenient, and aren't designed when it isn't convenient. Is that about right?

Once the stigma of ID wears old, I expect that number to increase even more for believers. Also, 89 percent of people in the US believe in God based on a Gallup poll.

Many believers accept evolution. Including 100% of Catholics. So the fact 51% are believers is irrelevant.

Pretty much, additionally...you can tell somethings designed if it;s complex, or if it;s simple.

Is a wine bottle cork designed or not?
Is it complex or not?

No Creatardism is a subset of christardism. And "I"D is a stupid strategy dreamed up by various christards to get their favoured creatardism taught as science in schools.
Therefore "I"D is simply theology dressed up in silk, but it remains a sow's ear.
