For me, it is hard to see the plan or design in earthquakes and pestilences. It is somewhat difficult to discern the design or the benevolence in so making the world that billions of animals live only on the agonies of others. The justice of God is not visible to me in the history of this world. When I think of the suffering and death, of the poverty and crime, of the cruelty and malice, of the heartlessness of this “design” and “plan,” where beak and claw and tooth tear and rend the quivering flesh of weakness and despair, I cannot convince myself that it is the result of infinite wisdom, benevolence, and justice.

Some will say: the multiverse explains it. Infinite universes — one had to have our constants by chance.
That's cosmological multiverse. Eternal inflation. Untestable. Unfalsifiable.
Many-worlds is different — a quantum mechanics interpretation. Also unfalsifiable.
Both are philosophy wearing equations.
Intelligent design is the answer.

A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
A devout clergyman sought every opportunity to impress upon the mind of his son the fact, that God takes care of all his creatures; that the falling sparrow attracts his attention, and that his loving kindness is over all his works.
Happening, one day, to see a crane wading in quest of food, the good man pointed out to his son the perfect adaptation of the crane to get his living in that manner. “See,” said he, “how his legs are formed for wading! What a long slender bill he has! Observe how nicely he folds his feet when putting them in or drawing them out of the water! He does not cause the slightest ripple. He is thus enabled to approach the fish without giving them any notice of his arrival.”
“My son,” said he, “it is impossible to look at that bird without recognizing the design, as well as the goodness of God, in thus providing the means of subsistence.”
“Yes,” replied the boy, “I think I see the goodness of God, at least so far as the crane is concerned; but after all, father, don’t you think the arrangement a little tough on the fish?”Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator

No hypothesis is scientific unless new evidence could potentially prove it false.
Application: Making the claim that a particular idea is science, one should ask, how could that idea be proven false? For example, the claim that Intelligent Design is a scientific theory. Counterargument: How could Intelligent Design be falsified? Answer: it is unfalsifiable, therefore #IntelligentDesign is a belief.

Two people are playing a game of pool. Halfway through the game they leave to go make sandwiches. While they are gone, someone walks into the room, looks at the balls on the table and notices that they are in the shape of a unicorn. The person notes that this exact configuration of balls must have been their intention all along.
This post is about #IntelligentDesign.

tell people who doubt #evolution:
"look at your feet
you can't tell me that didn't used to be a hand. why the fuck can you wiggle your toes? what the fuck are even your toes? yeah yeah balance, gait, etc- that's just making what you got work. which is obviously something that until very recently was a hand, that is now halfway to turning into a hoof or pad or some tripod thing in another couple million years. it's not an #intelligentDesign! the human foot is fucking stupid"

#IntelligentDesign bezweifelt das Wirken der #Evolution – unter anderem weil man nie beobachtet hat, wie ein #Gen aus einzelnen #Nukleinsäure-Bausteinen entstand. Das liegt vor allem daran, dass Organismen schon lange viel "billiger" zu neuen Genen kommen … — Frisch im Blog: https://www.laborjournal.de/blog/?p=14200#more-14200

Yup. Omnivalent agents who can/might do anything in/per "mysterious ways" is always the more probable explanation for any event. Never mind proteins or solar systems, I'm talking a slot machine sequence, a roll of a die, or a flip of a coin. Heck, even a negative roll of a die. Like, the probability would be 1, if you assume such an agent, who desires a specific state of affairs "because reasons".

Guillermo Gonzalez has been doing the apologetics promo circuit recently, and it's getting tedious repeatedly hearing some variation of "appeal to sweet spot" in argument for some "intelligent design", when the "sweet spot" is itself set up by the "intelligent designer".

William Albert Dembski is an American who is one of the main pushers of the pseudoscience of intelligent design, specifically his unfalsifiable concept of "specified complexity".
Unusually for a creationist, he does in fact have some actual credentials: a Ph.D in mathematics from the University of Chicago, a Ph.D in philosophy from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and a Masters of Divinity from Princeton Theological Seminary. Now, if only one of those fine institutions recognized Intelligent Design as being anything but an absolute hodgepodge of nonsense, he'd be set.
…
Thus, despite having been educated at real universities, he "lectures" and "does research" at institutions that are at the very deep end of overtly faith-driven #pseudoscience.
