This is our situation vis-a-vis the physical universe.<BR/>Complexity is irrelevant because both designed and undesigned objects/phenomena come in simple and complex forms, so there is no correlation between design and complexity.<BR/>Evolution explains how the internal complexity of organisms can arise without invoking a conscious external agency.<BR/>These are simple points to get across but address central points in ID/Creationism's rhetorical appeal.Graham Richardshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15607367693059011034noreply@blogger.com
