Intelligent Design proven to be a complete Falsehood.
There are those who adhere and cling to the concept that, literally, everything, including Human Beings, were designed by a Supremely Intelligent Designer.
Well, here are just a FEW points that, imo, disproves that ideology completely.
A) the human body, IF designed would be completely symmetrical would it not?
No, it is most definitely NOT symmetrical at all,
For example, Everyone has 1 foot that is slightly larger, longer and wider than the other, some have what is known as 'Transposed Organs,' i.e. their internal organs are on the OPPOSITE side of the body when compared to everyone else, EVERY woman has 1 breast that is larger than the other, a man has 1 Testicle that hangs lower and is slightly larger than the other, in EVERY person 1 lung, the right lung, is larger and has greater capacity than the other, the left lung, the opposite occurs in those with Transposed Organs btw.
B) Trees, for another example, MAY look symmetrical BUT in fact they ARE NOT by any means so,
C) No 2 Earthworms are perfectly symmetrical either, every Earthworm has subtle asymmetrical differences,
D) No 2 droplets of water are either completely symmetrical, they ALL have differing asymmetrical shapes when examined in minute detail,
E) No 2 flakes of snow are exactly the same, neither are completely symmetrical in shape and size, etc, etc.
I could go on further but I assume you ARE getting the drift and realizing that there IS a very big spanner caught up in the ideological works that are Intelligent Design.
Actually, let me re-iterate here, more like an ENTIRE Tool chest rather than a mere spanner.

I think Intelligent Design is a cruel hoax, but I don't agree that your post proves it false. All of the irregularities you mention could occur in either Intelligent Design or Natural Selection.

The proof that Intelligent Design is false is that it requires a deity. It is, in fact, designed to justify belief in the existence of a deity.

Intelligent design would have done better on KNEES, both ours & dogs!

Science over stupidity

Sounds like god needs a new Director of Quality Control. Maybe he can list the job on Linked In

No your premise is debatable. Not that I believe IN Intelligent Design, but maybe there would be reasons for asymmetrical organisms.
I'll go one step further as an agnostic: perhaps there are evolutionary advantages to asymmetry. Not saying there ARE; just a thought.
Don't get me wrong! If a divine entity existed, there'd be no suffering or hell, in my opinion. That should be a reasonable indication we might have to rethink our definition of 'god,' if such a thing is possible.

Assuming that symmetry is the trademark Identifier of intelligent design is to assume a false dichotomy.

Well, are not aircraft, for example, designed symmetrically, are not cars, etc, etc?

What makes you think symmetry is a requirement? There are many variables that affect it, yet function is still there. Weak argument

Well, a Great Designer would ensure symmetry in his/her/its end products, would he/she/it not?

@Triphid what if gods mon had one boob bigger, and he liked it?

I suffer from a cognitive failure. It is that I simply cannot get inside the mind of those who believe the claims of Intelligent Design; I cannot comprehend such irrationality.

i found a bat wing once and I knew it was proof of Batman.

That's strange since I too found a pair red underpants that proved to be those worn by Superman...LOL.

If one can be open to the possibility that perfection as commonly understood is about as likely to exist as the gods imagined to exemplify the concept, there's lots of latitude to consider an imperfect universe to have properties like consciousness and intentionality.

Those two in action together could lend functional (observable) evidence sufficient to 'reason' some kind intelligent design for those pre-conceiving a necessity for it to originate with some kind/s of deity.

We learn through trial and error, so how far a reach is it to entertain the likelihood that our universal source life operates on the same principles aside from or perhaps even through us. Could sleep be an upload/download phenomenon?

In our Image. if I recall.

You did not even delve into the 4000+ known genetic defects !

I tried my best to keep it as brief and to the point as I possibly could.

@Triphid As is your right ! Carry on

Yeah, HE/SHE/IT did a poor job of it

Can you imagine what a car would like if designed by this assumed Intelligent Designer?

@Triphid I've seen better toasters !

@twill I've even made better toasters and I'm not Engineer or Electrical Designer, just a Ham Radio Operator.

@Triphid Ford, Pinto Chevrolet, Vega Chrysler Corp, Omni/Horizon American motors Corp, All

@oldFloyd Hey, I had a Javelin, great car

My doctor also said the poorest design in the body is our ears.

It most definitely is.

At least one thing kind of turned out right, the waste outlets are well away from the nutrient intakes, EXCEPT when it comes to women, who in their right mind would put a Pleasure area adjacent to waste outlets, it goes completely against ALL Health and Safety Regulations....LOL.

@Triphid Yeah, I was thinking that too.

@Lilac-JadeCanada It would seem that Great minds do think alike then.

@Triphid Even if we are on different continents....hahahahaha

@Triphid @Lilac-JadeCanada....That remark about the pleasure zone beside the waste outlet always struck me as proof absolute of no intelligent designer, as no designer of any intelligence could possibly have made such a blunder!

What?

@Marionville Exactly!

What?
