I leave you with the following question: If evidence is interpreted as showing design in living organisms, then is it truly unscientific to conclude that there was a Designer?
This one still has me scratching the back of my head. I'm eating a sandwhich right now and I look at it and it gives me evidence of a cook or baker that made it. So I guess it would be unscientific to say there was a baker who made it. Can someone please explain this better to me? I simply dont understand.
I believe in intelligent design because I sort of see a program running everything. In civil engineering (my area of work) programming is an essential part of our work in these modern times. Thanks to programs we can now design structures higways and water resource systems quicker and more efficiently. Whem you make a program(it doent matter what language) you have to define variables, equations and procedures for it to work porperly. My piont is that if there is no program that says that two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom to form water, what then makes them react. In pseudocode it would be something like:
SUB (formation of water)
c = hydrogen atom
d = oxygen atom
x = atom of another element
If c ^ d (water combines with hydrogen) Then
c ^ d = water
If c ^ x Then Exit
If d ^ x Then exit
END SUB
In this program only water is analyzed if c or d reacts with x then it would be another substance. I believe the elements are programed to combine or react with some elements or not react with others. If they aren,t programmed why then do they act the way they do.

Ponlo todo en las manos de Dios y que se joda el mundo. El principio de la sabiduria es el temor a Jehova
