I Find The Idea Of Common Descent

We Are Not Inferring Design To Account For A Black Box, But To Account For An Open Box.

In Many Biological Structures Proteins Are Simply Components Of Larger Molecular Machines.

The Question Is: Exactly How Did Life Get Here? Was It By Natural Selection And Random Mutation Or Was It By Something Else? Everybody - Even Richard Dawkins - Sees Design In Biology. You See This Design When You See Co-ordinated Parts Coming Together To Perform A Function - Like In A Hand. And So It's The Appearance Of Design That Everybody's Trying To Explain. So That If Darwin's Theory Doesn't Explain It We're Left With No Other Explanation Than Maybe It Really Was Designed. That's Essentially The Design Argument.

The Conclusion Of Intelligent Design Flows Naturally From The Data Itself - Not From Sacred Books Or Sectarian Beliefs. Inferring That Biochemical Systems Were Designed By An Intelligent Agent Is A Humdrum Process That Requires No New Principles Of Logic Or Science. It Comes Simply From The Hard Work That Biochemistry Has Done Over The Past Forty Years, Combined With Consideration Of The Way In Which We Reach Conclusions Of Design Every Day.

Since Natural Selection Requires A Function To Select, An Irreducibly Complex Biological System, If There Is Such A Thing, Would Have To Arise As An Integrated Unit For Natural Selection To Have Anything To Act On.
