4. done

and suppose one believes that the
'intelligence' was little green men from the planet Xeron?


When I was in Catholic school, we were never told it was FACT; but FAITH and I had no problem putting facts and faith in different parts of my brain. Still don't.

5. and again I say:
what's so 'intelligent' about human design?

We're highly flawed carbon based life forms, no fur, no fangs, no claws, light density muscle structure, heart and genitals exposed -- we can't run fast or see far or fly or even sleep outside.

We have two things: A large (although not the largest) brain and opposable thumbs. Incidentally, our brain has just enough horsepower to get us in trouble, using our opposable thumbs to create untold destruction and wreak havoc on the planet.

We are one of the few predators who kill for sport, and the only species who tortures their own kind.

As I said, we are carbon-based. What's intelligent about that? Silicon would have been a much better building block.

Intelligent design? I'm sorry, I guess I missed that design review meeting.
