The universe is billion of years old, it's expanding into something that isn't entirely certain and all the sand on one beach doesn't equal the number of stars scattered among the night sky--into the vastness of existences and we're only fraction of what existences. Not even a fraction, not even a fragment, not even anything--we're that minute in the scheme of things, but people of a more Christian or retardation background want to make our existences seem like the most importanting thing to come about instead of it being from stupid unprovable evolution.

Intelligent Design seem quite ironic for a fake science sounding title, since it's only the most retarded idea to come out from the mouths of someone with a stupid or religious background--though I find myself laughing on what that means for whoever they think created us. Take Will Wright's: The Sims, anyone can be some sort of semi-cruel-epic-god and as we're aware of most gamers who devote more then half their life to gaming, they're overweight social outcasts living in a basement. Now, think about the comparison of Intelligent Design and The Sims; what do you get from it?

Mega-Epic-LULZ of course! People who want Intelligent Design or Creationlism to be fact, might have to accept a very real and funny possibility that their bearded dude of unconditional love God--ironic how he loves you and yet casts you into the pit of hell--is nothing more then the already mentioned stereotype gamer.

Think about the hillarity--Intelligent (retard) Design is reducing our existences to that of The Sims and that they're hoping for some all knowing God to be a bearded dude in the sky. Thank Thor for science being fact and religion nothing more then Fairy Tales that people actually find a way to believe in--personally I follow the bible of Little Red Riding Hood. Real lessons to be learnt from that.

Now, come on, stop beating about the bush and tell us what you really think.

I agree with you on the flaws in Intelligent Design BUT science is also a product of the human mind rather than a set of objective, observable facts. For example; take Lucy - the oldest known human-type fossil. How did they work out it was a female? Not because of the size of the pelvis or the number of ribs but because it was found with cooking implements. When it was discovered in the 19th Century this sort of gender-work-divide was considered as scientific fact. Now of course we like to think we're more enlightened now, but how much of today's science will seem laughable in 100 years time? They do say that to understand the mind of man study religion and to understand the mind of God study Physics.

Intelligent design is the product of a mindset that can't let go of old certainties, yet needs rational explanations. That is a product of a mechanistic society. And that, ultimately grew from the enlightenment and the questioning of earlier modes of thought.

My hunch, and it is only the hunch of a free thinker who also has faith, is that intelligent design as a theory could not have grown without the questioning of theism.

And humanity as a whole (I do not exclude myself) seems to have a knack of providing answers that say more about the questioner than the subject of investigation.

Science does not know all, only thinks it will one day unravel the mysteries of this world. Maybe it will, maybe it won't and perhaps, some people like the idea of a benevolent creator because they don't feel so alone in this world even if it's a delusion. Let them be deluded if it helps them cope with life. You can call that stupid and 'retarded' but if it helps someone cope, then who cares if they believe in Father Christmas or whatever. By the way, I am not talking about crazy dangerous religious nutters who cause trouble and mayhem regardless of whatever religion they happen to be.

Richard Dawkins has explained thoroughly why intelligent design is a delusion. However, those devout atheist such as him are all starting to remind me of those crazy preachers who INSIST they KNOW what's true. NOBODY knows, science doesn't, we don't and maybe we never will.

Oh and no, I'm not religious but I studied science and whilst I believe in evolution, I no longer read Richard Dawkins because I realised, he was no better than them crazy preachers....arrogance is arrogance no matter what side it is on.

And let's not forget there have been atheist dictators - Pol Pot, Hitler, Stalin.
