Philo just needs to back to my post

"Posted by HarryC, Sunday, 4 September 2005 7:02:40 PM"

in which I responded to another of his asshat suppositions. If that ain't clear Philo then it's time to give up because the adults are speaking.

You are still sitting on that chair, when the evolving gene is to squat to alight speedily or land shock absorbed. Your descendants will never get off Earth. "The're of the Earth, while the spirit is to rise to places unknown"

From the articles I read here on no intelligent designer, conclude the following. It doesnt take intelligence or a concept of design to write a theory of evolution as facts place order as a possible sanario.

Evolution happens over many generations by slight mutation being introduced into an existing species. The example given was the eye. Eg, continual exposure to sunlight caused neat cavities to appear on each side of the simple cellular species, give or take a 1,000,000 years and eyes formed because the simple species felt the wampth and needed the light of the sun to find its way more quickly to its meal. [So apparently it was able to reason and direct an intelligent thought process to direct and recreate itself into a new species from outside its original gene pool] When it got there it found it had no digestive system other than to absorb the water that contained nutriment from rocks. [Using the same logic] So it pushed hard against the rock for many thousands of generations at the position where the eyes could see the rock and finally the rock itself penetrated the surface of its membrane because lips and a mouth had been formed, and as all foreign matter in a cell it must now be excreted so thousands of generations later an anus was formed after millions of years of excreating the foreign matter through the same way it entered.

The theory of evolution reads like any dreamtime story but there was no one else there, no observer, no brain no design it all just evolved. You see all those people who believe in intelligent design believe in an eternal intelligence and that structural design principles were at work even in primitive DNA.

Atheists denounce intelligence or principles of design exist outside the DNA, nor were instilled divinely within the species.
