Diamonds also arise on their own. Do you think that they are easy to duplicate?
What's the one difference here? We can make diamonds, although not easily, but we can't make a cell!!! With all our technology we can't make life.
I think you are missing the point. Consider that we have only been able to make diamonds for a few years of the thousands of years the human race has existed. Using your argument a person living under the reign of Ramses could conclude that diamonds could only be made by god, since man was unable to reproduce them.
Don't conflate "natural" with "simple", please.
I don't think anything about life is simple.
...
I think life and the universe are unbelievably complex which is why I think it was created by a God. The God.
Again you make the same mistake. Your argument is
simple -> natural
complex -> god-made
So you are making the exact error mentioned here.
The universe is quite capable of great complexity on it's own.
That is a very anthropomorphic statement. You act like the universie is making decisions on it's own.
No actually he is claiming that the universe is capable of generating great complexity. He is not claiming that the universe is making decisions.
