The Intelligent Design (ID) proponents argue that the complexity of life forms proves that there must be a creator while the Evolutionists claim that random selection was the driving force in the development of life. When a baby is born there is a fifty-fifty chance it is female or male. There is a 3% chance that the baby is normal or has birth defects. Downs syndrome affects one in a thousand babies born each year and is caused by genetic disorder. These defects are randomly distributed throughout the world population. This would logically indicate that life is governed by random chance rather than ID. There are many flaws that indicate that either a Creator doesn’t exist or that this Designer is not perfect. The excuse I have heard from the ID supporters is that we are imperfect because of the original sin committed by our forefather and mother. That begs the following question. Since animals, plans, aquatic life and even micro biology life show the same imperfections and chance mutations, are they also affected by Adam’s sin even if they had nothing to do with it except for the snake perhaps? That doesn’t make sense.
Since pure chance is observed, every day, while we cannot observe a supreme being, the conclusion that chance rules everywhere is not only obvious but also true.
I am anxiously awaiting the rebuttal from my ID friends without such twisted logic as we encountered when some believers tried to prove that the earth is only 8000 years old against observable evidence, such as stars being farther away than 8000 lightyears.
