1. Human artificial designers "NEED" to borrow from biological designs.
You haven't supported this.
If those biological designs were not good, why would there be bio-mimicry?

Re: Evidence for a designer
The child looks at his dad and asks, why such a big house with nobody else in here? My speculation is that Dad just built the house and hasn't moved in yet.
or it could be that the kid hasn't checked every room yet.

Re: Evidence for a designer
That's like saying that out of 500 billion dump-trucks full of marbles you find only one marble with a perfect biosphere and intelligent organisms living on it, and saying "Oh well there is nothing really all that unique about it."
But we haven't examined all of those 500 billion marbles, just 9 of them. We have little evidence to say that the one is unique.

Re: Evidence for a designer
Based on what we have observed 1/9 planets have life on them. Based on your proposed 500 billion planets 55.6 billion (give or take few) should have life on them, is that the point you're tying to make? Cause it doesn't fit with your previous one.
edited to add: rereading your original example I see that it was 500 billion dump trucks of marbles, not 500 billion marbles. The math still carries over, 55.6 billion dumptrucks of marbles would have life.
Edited by DrJones*, : No reason given.

Re: Evidence for a designer
You can't read stats like that when you have only observed 9
So are you now saying that your original "500 billion dump trucks" analogy is invalid? Cause it looks like you're agreeing that the sample size is too small to come to the conclusion that the earth is unique.
