Is colors evidence for Design?

[In situ]

It is a fact that science has failed to explain why colors exists or taste or smell for that sake (sometimes referred to as qualia). Cold this be taken as evidence for design (yes or no) and what would motivate your answer?

Colors exist when the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation reach a certain range (430-770 Thz).

When this radiation falls on receptors (the eyes), they travel to the brain via the optic nerve, where a "circuit is completed" and the observer experiences an empirical sensation -- he "sees colors."

The same for taste, where certain chemical reactions take place on the "taste buds" and the observer experiences "taste."

And while I don't believe in Intelligent Design,* per se, I do believe this was designed intelligently.

* The title to this thread leaves out the word "intelligent," yet the body of the OP includes it; making it difficult for a non-believer in Intelligent Design to answer the title without having to explain this.

Thanks for pointing this out. I changed my question in body of the OP from 'ID' to 'design'.

Is it your opinion that qualia does not exist?

Is it your opinion that qualia does not exist?

For the sake of arguing, I'll say qualia exists.

But where the Bible disagrees with qualia, qualia is wrong.

For the sake of arguing, I'll say qualia exists.

I am not going to argue for or against any viewpoint. I am just trying to understand how I should inferre evidence of design to the functional description you gave. It is not clear to me how you relate a functional description of our sensor organs as a motivation for why you think it is evidence for design.

But where the Bible disagrees with qualia, qualia is wrong.

Does the bible disagree with it or is this just a disclaimer?
