what mechanisms of human invention even compare to the invention of the designer?
The wheel and axle. Nothing in nature comes close to the simplicity and efficiency of that.

you have misunderstood the argument let me post it for you again.

we have no self replicating, self diagnosing, and self repairing machines in the world. Our most advanced designs do not produce this. Yes any typical healthy human has all of those features.

any questions?
Yes: where, exactly, is the argument?

Yes, why would you think a typical healthy human is designed if it has features that no designed objects (no matter how advanced) have?

To put the analogy in perspective, consider a Nineteenth Century engineering genius (for example, Thomas Edison or Gustave Eiffel) and have him meet Star Trek's Data. According to gradyll, the engineer will somehow recognize that Data is an engineered machine. He would not. He is too far beyond the practical engineering they know. He would assume he is a naturally born human.

I picked Data because he was engineered. It points out that the argument is flawed. Even if Man was designed and engineered, this argument can never prove it.

wow, I mean wow,

comparing the wheel and axle to self diagnostic, self repairing, and self replicating units.

like any typical human.

Yes, why would you think a typical healthy human is designed if it has features that no designed objects (no matter how advanced) have?

because our designs, which others have succesfully shown, are self replicating, self diagnosing, and self repairing.

but not all in one unit,

so our human bodies designer, is far more witty than our most advanced designs.


I am unsure why you can't understand the argument, would you like me to repost it a third time?

Because that is what you want to see.
I want to see 40 billion years, yet I can't. I want to see 1 million years yet I can't. I want to see last Thursday yet I can't.

The Bible portrays the universe as a valid Chess position being set up in a moment of time.
True. A flat board full of pawns getting pushed around.

whats your point?
I think it might be that a determination of what is inappropriate content, especially soft core inappropriate content, is often in the (dirty) mind of the beholder. Old pin-up posters are considered to be art. Song of Songs is Biblical canon. Just because some people can use almost anything as fantasy fodder, does not make them automatically inappropriate content.

Do you consider Andres Serrano's junk as "art"?
