I make no claim that each feature on the landscape of the universe was
ID'ed although some Christians would make an arguement about everything
being the will of God. Obviously this is not the real issue in the
debate on origins and I think you know this.
The issue is about how organisms and the like came into being with such
complex functional parts not about a single organism. That is, how come
the gravitational constant is just right for the universe and life and
not how come there was this and so pile of rocks in the way of a river.
Am I the result of ID? The arguement would be generically yes but some
my colleges on this line would argue the specifics in my case.
