Correction: "Both creationism and ID
PRESUME a designer..."
Sure they do. It's not
CONCLUSIVE evidence, but there is indeed evidence that a designer was not needed.
First, "proof" is NOT the standard applied--verifiable evidence and/or valid logic is the standard applied.
Secondly, there is no evidence, that is validated with even
BASIC intellectual rigor, that petitions for the existence of this designer that creationism and intelligent-design
PRESUMES.
We don't! We apply the exact same standard for both!
EXACTLY the same.
In contrast, no evidence (of an intellectually rigorous nature) OR "proof" was required for you to hold your belief in the existence of this "designer" you posit--yet you demand "proof" (i.e.; conclusive and irrefutable evidence) for refuting your assertion of this "designer"--as if it should be considered valid in the first place. You (as typical of creationists and intelligent-design promoters) hold "materialism" or "naturalism" or "Darwinism" to an
ENTIRELY different standard than you hold your own
PREASSUMPTION.
Why is that? Why do
YOU require a higher standard from "naturalism" than you do for this "designer" of yours and creationism?
This is just presumptive nonsense. It is a point that
has been refuted a thousand times.
For the same reasons you've refused to address where the "life" of your "creator" came from, I predict that you'll just as resolutely refuse to address where the intelligence that accounts for the "complexity" of your designer came from.
