Observation and critical thinking.
Didn't we go through all this previously? I seem to remember it boiled down to personal incredulity (e.g. an emotional view) in the end.
I'm very dubious that you can find a critical thinking syllabus anywhere with a chapter on "Gut feelings"Tell that to those who teach those subjects.
Teachers have an immense responsibility in conveying information and method, but the greater responsibility lies with the student. The evidence from the posts you have made on this forum is that you have not met that responsibility. Repeated attempts to guide you towards effective teaching materials by several members have been ignored or rejected. The conclusion is inevitable.Tell that to those who teach those subjects.
I thought it was from looking at pictures in an anatomy book?

That's your claim... but you can never back it up with details or examples, let alone specific counters to evolutionary science.Reading anatomy books.
No, without analysis or ironically some critical thinking a gut feeling is indistinguishable from wishful thinking or fantasy.Gut feelings don't appear out of the blue.

The content of the "I just looked at life and it really gave me the feeling that it was designed." is functionally identical to "I read a book about the details of life and it really gave me the feeling that it was designed.".
I have no difficulty whatsoever condemning believers in evolution who don't understand it alongside non-believers in evolution who don't understand it. Slovenly thinking, closed minds, laziness, lack of motivation, etc. Lots of reasons why it isn't understood. Few, if any of them are good ones.I have perused lots of evolution material. None of it makes sense to me. In fact I don't know how anyone can make sense of it. One just has to accept it. A simple test will prove me right. Ask a sampling of the majority of people that claim to believs in evolution if they actually understand it.
The phrase "copy and paste whatever you wish from anatomy books" certainly supports my description of you vaguely waving your hand at the content.I can copy and paste whatever you wish from anatomy books, which will reveal purposeful design at the very least.

You apparently don't study anatomy.

Elitist? No, I just don't think the bar should be set two inches off the ground when setting targets for understanding anything.
