No. Not at all.

One is a natural process that can be studied/observed/understood.

Another is a super natural fairy tale invented by very primitive hunter gatherers who didn't shower, didn't have paper to wipe their behinds, didn't have refrigerators, electricity, or any clue as to how the world worked.






so show us the study where we've created life artificially, created something
from nothing or created a universe. science for you is clearly a religion
because you're pushing models as fact




Calling science a religion is a stretch, hoss.

I don't really see how they are similar.

They aren't similar, but the way you are using it is like it's a religion to you.

intelligent yes intelligent design no
I think the universe is intelligent and since we are the universe we are intelligent.
But if you think evolution is bullshit you're crazy. It's constantly happening right in front of your face.

How can you say it isn't intelligently designed, solely because we are human and since the universe and life doesn't work in our favor all the time there is flaws? Unless you have a mind capable of creating a universe and life and how it will operate, you are in no position to say the workings of it are flawed. It's human bias to think because disease and other misfortunes fall upon us that it was designed unintelligently, what makes anyone think anything about the universe was or was not created with us in mind.

You cannot possibly make the claim that the universe is not intelligently designed because you view how it operates as wrong. Are we so important and conceited that we think the universe was designed to operate in our favor or with us even in mind, for all we know, the universe is operating perfectly for whatever goal it was created for in the first place. If there was even a creator anyway, because you are close minded and arrogant if you think you can know one way or the other what the intentions behind this universe was if there was even one at all.

We are nothing to the universe, just because we don't like death and disease and how we can't regrow limbs or any of that other nonsense, doesn't mean jack shit, because the way life itself operates might have nothing to do at all with our own beliefs or individual lives, and works the way it does for a much greater reason then us or our happiness.

"How can one argue that living things are truly "intelligently designed"? "

How can one argue the opposite, without knowing the purpose for life existing in the first place?

I think its far more stupid to say that there was a total lack of intelligence in its creation. That it just happened randomly. Completely randomly without any influence whatsoever. It just poofed into existence. To me thats as stupid as saying some humonoid god blew it into existence. Both of them seem to be as far from the truth as you can get.
