What does "Intelligent Design" even mean?

What do you think about this?

How does it explain serial killers? Was that part of the "design?"

If I was an all-powerful being designing humans, we'd be a hell of a lot prettier and smarter. And none of us would have Down's Syndrome, autism, cancer etc.--but I suppose that all those serial killers, rapists, retarded or god forbid, hermaphodites, are all just put here to "test" us.

Who designed the eyeball again? And why did they do such a bad job of it?

I'll see your 4 eyes and raise you 6.

As the owner of lenses that cost over $400 each in order to be even publicly respectable, I'll see your 6 and raise you 8. I put money away in a non-tax fund for over half a year to get these bad-ass lenses.

Now I just have to start saving and wait until I'm 40 for lasik. Oh, and I'll have to build up some courage to allow someone access to my retinas. :eek:

LOL, I believe you meant corneas rather than retinas. ;)
 
Hey, this is a pretty cool video.

You may, of course, draw your own conclusions, concerning the cell's origins, etc.

My view: Ain't it just absolutely amazing what "dead" chemistry and physics can randomly do and cook up, by chance? AKA MAGIC! What are the odds?


Chance? As someone who thoroughly studied Statistics in college, I can safely say that probability is not magic.

What difference does your own conclusion make? You have no education in biology.

For example; What is your view on quantum field theory? What does your intuition tell you?
 
The Evolution of Mount Rushmore

Can any of you explain to me how Mount Rushmore evolved from the rocks? I just don't see any intelligent design in it, so obviously it must have evolved. I just can't figure out how. I suppose if we can't figure it out today due to lack of evidence, then I'm sure some scientist in the future will prove that Mount Rushmore evolved. Hopefully.

I sometimes wonder what it is like, to be this hapless, this ignorant. Is it really blissful?

Missed the entire point completely ....... of course. :p Ya really gotta work hard at being quite that obtuse.

False! :p And much more than you obviously! "Brainwash" schooling is what I lack and escaped.

It's an interesting "theory" too. :) Start a new thread!
Mitt needs a haircut! :rolleyes:
 
When with the IDers realize that pseudo-philosophy is not science? All they can present is pseudo-philosophical nonsense.

Where is the evidence to back up your claims? Where is the data? Where is the experimentation? Where is the proof?
