... better than nothing, I suppose. But I was hoping for a new Mustang.

I am the only one on this forum, other than the others, authorized to judge the efficacy of scientific fact. You certainly can't. You don't even know what a fact is.

The thread concerns itself with intelligent design and I think the reason atheists struggle with that simple concept is that recognizing intelligent design in nature requires a certain degree of intelligence.
My experience of atheists is that, in general, their IQ appears to be well below average. In fact I can't recall ever encountering, or even hearing about, an atheist who could be described as possessing an above-average IQ. The vast majority of evolutionary biologists are atheists, which sorta proves my point.

We don't struggle with the concept. We recognize it for what it is, a subjective opinion. More to the point, ID can't explain the most basic observations in biology, such as the nested hierarchy and the patterns of sequence divergence in genomes.

Why not? Do you think God is incapable of creating nested hierarchies?

Do you think God is incapable of creating nested hierarchies? Yes. Nested hierarchies are a property of evolution not fantasy ghosts.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

God is perfectly capable of creating nested hierarchies ... therefore no need for your puny theory of evolution.
