Dawkins and Hitchens are both incorrigible fools.
Dawkin's PhD thesis is about fucking bird beaks, something Darwin beat him only by over 100 years with, yet somehow he's the world's expert on evolution? Fucking Bill Nye is more qualified, and yes I'm being facetious. At least he's not as stupid as Hitchens and doesn't outright deny the hypothesis that God could exist. Real scientists recognize natural patterns, appreciate the math behind them, come to terms that it's not happenchance, and eventually become deists. Things like DNA being a database with checksums and fantastical properties that we can't even imitate or understand the combinations of 4 little base pairs; it simply doesn't just poop itself out. | ||

There are halfway reasonable reasons to believe in a deity/deities. Checksums in DNA sounds like you're really stretching. It's like you want to believe but you don't want to sound like a moron, so you come up with something that sounds halfway scientific. In the end, you come out sounding like a moron anyway. Do you really think that the process of evolution wouldn't discover similar algorithms to ones we use, when we are both attempting to do similar tasks in a universe with the same physics/mathematical properties? The regulatory processes of the immune system often exhibit similar properties to regulatory systems in various manufacturing processes. Does that indicate to you that our immune system must have had a designer? Or is it just the case that when solving similar problems, a trial and error approach (evolution) can come up with similar solutions to what we humans design?
And the fact that humans can't yet understand fully our DNA does not make for a good argument for a designer. Or are we back to believing in Zeus because we don't understand electrical charge in the atmosphere and how that leads to lightning/thunder? | ||
