Stoopid Design 2
#18875879 - 09/22/13 01:17 PM (10 years, 4 months ago) |

For those that posit a Creator, why do you believe he designed things intelligently?
Ever try to eat a pomegranate? Why is an avocado pit so huge? Why do our rear teeth often grow into our other teeth causing major oral problems unless corrected medically? More importantly, why are the male testes fully exposed and filled with the most pain receptors?
There are a plethora of examples of stoopid design. Such flawed engineering kind of deflates the whole idea of ID.

Not to mention the appendix, humans' naturally occurring, randomly-activating self destruct switch.

You haven't shown that any of the things you listed as bad designs are.

You shouldn't have, because you have to show how that would make all of creation, not a good design. If you don't do that you're just playing t-ball, like the OP.

My bad for assuming intelligent readers.

This certainly appears to be an engineering flaw.

I agree, god has definitely been at work here.
Evidence for Stoopid Design can be found throughout the planet, things could never ever have gotten this stoopid without an all powerful omnipresent stoopid designer at work. I expect to see this idea taking it's rightful place as the leading theory among top scientists within the next two to three years.

Ever notice how most IDers are also proponents of circumcision?
God in his perfection put this extra piece of skin here, but we will correct it.

It's that they actually are willing to take an honest look around. They report what they see. Not for the faint of heart.

Appears?
That's an intelligent argument? It's no argument at all it's a question, an appeal to intuition of the reader. Engineers don't fuck up. Engineers don't fuck up when they are making improvements?
And why waste your time if you don't think those who read what you write are not intelligent enough to understand it?

Perception being subjective, the fundamental is truth, not honesty, so those reports we can take with a pinch of salt.

I take everything with salt but some things with a pinch and some with the whole fucking salt shaker.

Can someone in honesty portray the middle ages as a utopian ideal? Only if they're very ignorant

So you view the times of plague and unlimited power of the catholic church as a utopian ideal? That was the basis of my previous statement you just agreed with. Or have you not heard of the Middle Ages

Those are elements you've just taken the liberty to introduce in elaboration.
The statement which I agreed with was "Can someone in honesty portray the middle ages as a utopian ideal?" to which my answer is "Yes, they can based upon perception".

I'm going to leave at this, the question is becoming increasingly meaningless
