Only if that someone or something is an idiot or severely limited in its creative abilities. Why else would that someone/thing give the octopus a fantastic eye, yet the rest of us tetrapods this ridiculous back-to-front eye with a blind spot? Why have I, a bipedal man, the same bone structure as my quadrpedal relatives? Was I designed to get severe back-ache? What idiot thought it would be a good idea to use the same opening for respiration and ingestion of food, leading to death by choking? And why are my genitalia in such an exposed position? As a quadruped, they're nicely protected, but as soon as I stand upright, they're there for all to attack. Talking of genitalia, why is my body's sewage system integrated with my love-making apparatus either your someone/thing really hates us, or it's a complete fool.
Interestingly, the reasons for all of these issues become astonishingly clear when we consider evolution...
This makes perfect sense but if only human beings of all species were perfect beings, with perfectly designed and constructed bodies, who would believe in the theory of evolution? Short answer - no one. How would the world function? It wouldn't be anything close to what it's now. People would be discouraged to pursue science in a world that's ruled by an entity. Try teaching Evolution to children in Palestine and Iran, you can't. They are brainwashed and will laugh at the thesises of the TOE. I imagine something like that would have happened if we, of all species, were physically perfect. The world would be a terrible place, run by religion, governed by fundamentalists like the Taliban where our society would be something close to that of Afghanistan. In terms of development, I'd say we would still be in the Dark Ages, if not right in the Stone Age. People would disobey anyone and everyone on the premise that god says so. How would you enforce laws in such a "society"? How would you control people?
Realistically, our development rests heavily on the abolishment of the idea of god.
