Even if there was some creation events (which is pretty much what everyone thinks) it still adds no support for a god, God or GOD.

Well then we would have to find out what was behind the creation event. So far EVERY cause we have EVER found for ANYTHING has been natural. If it is supernatural, then it is not natural then it is not something that we can even study. Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Too funny.
Of course I can. Most are simply errors. Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

We don't have to be in your shoes, we can look at the whole spectrum of what scientists say and see Shapiro in context.

Non-random with respect to what? All Shapiro showed is that mutations are non-random with respect to time and genomic features. He never demonstrated that mutations are non-random with respect to fitness. My question is has it been demonstrated by experments that all mutations are random with respect to fitness? If so would you please cite me to paper so I can read and understand the proces or logic behind the statement that all mutations are random with respect to fitness. That doesn't even make any sense that I can see. Fitness is determined after the fact. It is totally unrelated to the mutation side.

The point is that Intelligent Design has NEVER been able to show any evidence that there is design or any model of how some imagined designer can intervene.
There is nothing in any of Shapiro's works that support Intelligent Design and making claims that it does is simply dishonest misrepresentation. Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

My question is: May the mutations be non-random and in fact deterministic in regards to fitness? How? Fitness is determined after the fact.

How? Fitness is determined after the fact. That is the understanding of science, my question goes to the possibility as to whether fitness is in fact determined by the non-random mutation itself.Thereby questioning when in fact fitness is determined. No, that is NOT the understanding of science, it is the reality. Fitness is whether or not something lives long enough to reproduce. It is totally and completely separate, disconnected from and unrelated to any mutations. Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Are you are suggesting that the mutation that allowed a strain of bacteria to be able to digest nylon was directed by some agency that had the foreknowledge of the discovery of nylon? That ability may have been given to the bacteria as part of its makeup. Is there something aboult nylon that makes it unique? Let's try a whole different path and see if it helps you. Do you understand that when folk talk about mutations in evolutionary biology they are talking about changes passed on during reproduction. With me so far?

So we are talking about mutations in the "parent" of the offspring (in the case of sexual reproducing critters) or the critter itself before before it splits in asexual critters. Still with me?

So far no signs have ever been found for planning or direction has ever been found when examining either living or non-living natural components of this universe.
