If one is claiming "intelligent design" designed all life as we now know it as a final state of biological development and that there are no evolutionary processes in place



is that the case?

are those who follow "intelligent design" claiming that there is zero evolution or variety involved? that there are zero imperfections, biological, mental, physical, or otherwise?

i haven't seen that. those that follow "ID" know, full well, they're not perfect, by any means. whether they're imperfect because of baldness or because they're sinners or whatever, i haven't heard anyone claim any form of perfection.

then why would an intelligent designer (at least on an intellectual level with us humans, certainly no less intelligent than humans) put... reproductive and excretory organs so closely aligned physically(to the point that excretory hygiene should come into play with respect to genital health)?

put the nose of above the mouth so that when one has a cold, one's nose drips into the way of one's mouth to the point that it can interfere with eating and drinking?

useless organs in the human body like appendices and adnoids?



well, thats where i turned the question back... for that matter, if evolution is built on the philosophy of aiming towards perfection, why would we evolve with all those shortcomings?
