Re: What I want to know
The article is fine but what does it have to do with whether a designer exists or not.?

Re: Prediction falsified!
I don't think your quotation is correct. I would argue that "we know that natural processes cannot do certain things, therefore it must have been designed."
evidence please.

Re: Prediction falsified!
Uhhhh.....natural processes cannot produce a watch. Natural proceses do not create kevlar. Natural processes cannot create the faces on Mt Rushmore. I could go on with a myriad of examples.
All of your examples are man-made objects. Try some non man-made objects.

Re: Prediction falsified!
Non-man made objects would be natural by definition (scientific definition)...
and thus not designed.

.And thus you have created a tautology. Do you see the problem?
Wheres the tautology? natural is not designed, I am just making an emphatic statement. Wheres the cyclic reasoning?
