[off topic rant...
This forum is dominated by a dozen, sharp thinking scholars, who will put you down you and call you ignorant if you think out of their highly scientific mind-set.
This is only you first post and you've already been insulted by "betraying a staggering ignorance of scientific method" How rude and unwelcoming!
For someone who has made an average of 10 posts a day for 17 months (yes over 6000) I would expect a little more consideration for a newbie.]
A designer could be considered scientific if "he" fine tuned the universal constants/ laws of physics, i.e. the speed of light, the mass of sub atomic particles, the number of atoms, the strenght of gravity etc.
