this is my view, if scientists can't create life in the lab with all their intelligence and technology, why would nature be able to create life through "natural selection" and other "un-intelligent" means?!>

Lemme get this straight - you think the fact that intelligent design is incapable of producing life demonstrates that only intelligent design can produce life?
Take a step back and look at what you wrote - it makes no sense whatsoever.
The fact of the matter is that life is too complex to have been intentionally designed. Only something like natural selection can produce something as complex as life.
Man, look at all of you people making the same fairly ridiculous logical error. How in the world can you think that the inability of a process to produce a certain outcome demonstrates that process is the only way to get that outcome?

I believe god created the natural laws and forces in this universe and they, in turn, created life, but "under direction" if you will. I also don't think we are advanced enough to create life from "nothing" - although we can clone, we have yet to unlock all the secrets of Nature in order to make life ourselves. I do no know if we ever will be, and if we ever reach that state technologically, hope we are then wise enough to know what to use it for that would be of a constructive instead of destructive nature.

Any intelligence capable of creating the universe must therefore be more complex then the universe itself. Who created the creator? Or in the case of natural selection, creative intelligence is the result of gradual evolution over time, and therefore could not have existed at the conception of the universe or at the conception of life. Your argument is flawed by assuming that computers and complex machines are the same as biological organisms or forms of intelligence. They aren't. Computers would never come about through gradual evolution because they were designed by man, not the product of cumulative natural selection.

It is my view that the Divine did not create life, the Divine IS life, the Divine IS nature.
Most people take very simplistic view of what life is, plants, animals, insects. To me life is not tangible, life is the animating force.
What all this hullabaloo comes down to is that it offends the sensibilities of a lot of people to think that they evolved from simple organisms (slime), and have moved to the point where we are now.
What form we started out in doesn't bother me, I'm not vain like that. We are where we are and there is no telling where we will go if we don't destroy ourselves first.

I don't know, nor do I really care. We are here, so why do we have to focus on issues like this when the world is so f***ed up? Deal with things you can change and improve.
Sure it makes for an interesting debate, but in the end, it doesn't even matter.

because God made people and all living organisms. scientists will never be able to Create from scratch living organisms. maybe they could clone organisms, sure, but people are not God, we will never be able to create life besides by our God given reproductive organs

Right on, but too bad your wise logic will be dimissed by those who refues to simply believe in God and creation.
Good try, I am with you!
