It's only necessary for God to be perfect if that's the way they define Him. Philosophers have been wrong before. St. Augustine said the the world could not be a sphere because in some places rain would fall up....not only that everyone would not be able to see Jesus coming down at the end times. Well...the saint was wrong! Maybe Christians just need to believe in the 'perfection' thing...and it'll turn out not to be true at all.
Intelligent Design is just a 'wedge' to "science-ify" religion. A, "Let's explain nature using a Designer.", thing which is by the definition of science, unscientific. The proponents know that they are trying to 'cheat' religion into the school system and are even willing to lie (by saying.."Why yes, I was an atheist too.."..when they weren't.) for their cause. Apparently, the ends justify the means.

well, I belive in guided evolution... which is a evolution-weighted version of intelligent design...
personally I feel that god used evolution as a means of creating things, helping it along once in a while, ect.
extinction of some species is simply part of the system. whos to say such things would be a mistake?

Yeah, absolutely. There's a page on Wikipedia where they discuss another theory called "Incompetent Design." It talks about all the features and parts of various organisms that couldn't possibly have been created by any intelligent being, because they're so poorly "designed." Junk DNA and flightless birds are just some of the examples.

No. The imperfections only prove that man sinned and the penatly was that he would die. God created man and woman perfect. They were not created to die but to live forever. When they sinned they fell from God's grace and protection. It took years for imperfections to show up which is why incest was not prohibited by God until later when they did begin to show up.
How does evolution explain the conscience? Where did it come from? Where did morals come from? Did they evolve? When did they evolve? Where is the evidence? When did rape become wrong according to evolution?

God needed to wipe out these species because some guy ate a piece of fruit he wasn't supposed to. That's what makes it intelligent.

Hebrews 4:12 For the note of God is quick, and effectual, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the ideas and intents of the middle. Bonus question...have not considered the action picture, yet from God's note Genesis 2:5 and each and each plant of the field earlier it changed into contained in the earth, and each and each herb of the field earlier it grew: for our lord god had no longer led to it to rain upon the earth, and there changed into no longer a guy to till the floor. 6 yet there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the entire face of the floor. 7 And our lord god formed guy of the airborne dirt and mud of the floor, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of existence; and guy grew to change right into a residing soul.

Why doesn't he just "intelligent design" his way out of it? Or "intelligently design" the world so that there is no "sin"?

Is Bill O'Reilly indicative of Intelligent Design? Wouldn't he have nicer hair if so?
