Nothing as complicated as creation can be 'created' by random actions. To believe that it is created by random happenings is a great example of lack of serious thought and lack of understanding. It is also a fine example of human arrogance and self-importance.
People often fear what they do not understand or believe. People often choose NOT to believe because they are afraid of losing "the power" themselves--- because they would then ultimately have to answer for their own actions.
Yes, "the power" belongs to a FAR superior being. Creation belongs to a far superior being.
By the way, it can also be argued that evolution and change is the Creator's way of continually adjusting the 'creation' so that it continues to function perfectly, as all good creations should.
Paul S. (above) assumes that any opinion other than his own begins with false assumptions. He further assumes that any analysis other than his own is specifically meant to insult people. Both of those assumptions are incorrect.
To be more specific, randomness CAN result in absolutely amazing things, however to assume that deliberate creation is "limited " infers that the creating mind is also limited which suggests that the parameters being used in the hypothesis are merely that of the known human mind ---and ALSO assumes that a greater mind than human does not exist--which is an erroneous assumption .
>>>simply and obviously lying <<<<< ?
Kindly refrain from making accusations of lies. Beliefs different than your own assumptions will continue to exist in spite of personal attacks. Have a great day.

Creation is so intricate, and so littered with biological mistakes, errors and "dead ends", it must either have arisen by chance OR have been deliberately created by a creator (God?) who was not paying much attention or did not care too much about the outcome!
What did "God" have in mind when he "carefully and deliberately" created Guinea worms? Or Spina Bifida? Or Downs Syndrome?

No.
Nature is far too intricate to have been the product of deliberate design.
You have the argument exactly backwards. Deliberate design can only produce relatively simple things. There is no evidence that deliberate design can produce things as complex as life.
Just look around yourself with an open mind and you'll see what I mean.
Fiddlesticks (below), you're exactly wrong. You begin with a false assumption that you're unwilling to question, and jump right to insulting people. That's childish of you.

"Paul S. (above) assumes that any opinion other than his own begins with false assumptions. He further assumes that any analysis other than his own is specifically meant to insult people. Both of those assumptions are incorrect. "
I've made no such assumptions. You're simply and obviously lying.
Doesn't the fact that you have to lie so much to defend your beliefs make you wonder about the value of those beliefs, kid? It should.

"Kindly refrain from making accusations of lies. Beliefs different than your own assumptions will continue to exist in spite of personal attacks. Have a great day. "
Don't be silly - why should I not point out that you lied?
And if you're accusing _me_ of "personal attacks", I suggest you provide some evidence. I've done no such thing.
Typical creationist behavior - lying, arrogance, and then pretending to be the innocent victim. Once again, doesn't the fact that you have to behave that way to defend your beliefs tell you something about the quality of those beliefs? It should.

My guess is that over ninety percent of the people here say you are wrong. I'm included in that 90%. Out of 25 answers only 2 agree with you.

OK, so god must be more intricate. How did that happen? Somewhere you have to decide "this just exists thus". Why not do that for the world around you? Why make up a god?

You're funny.
See the problem is that if you say complexity needs an even more complex creator, you just created an infinite upward spiral where nothing can ever be complex enough. That isn't even logical on a superficial level.

No. The Universe is full of chaos and destructive energy. Our little corner of existence is the result of random chaos and destruction that just happens to appear quiet at the moment. There is no evidence or need for a creator.

Design requires a designer. That's fact.
The rest is just wishful thinking.
