This basically a more convoluted way of stating the problem of irreducible complexity described by Michael Behe in his book “Darwin’s Black Box”

Purposeful, intelligent design with an end product in mind - this seems to echo the statements of King David in Psalm 139:

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
17 How precious to me are your thoughts,[a] God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand—
when I awake, I am still with you.

Here the thing.. you do not need to belive in god to see problem it the theory of evolution... but because of it leaving the door open to possibility of god.. science is afraid to the question evolution dogma...

science driven by religious dogma or anti-religious dogma is still bad science...because in both cases it really is just the political dogma of the moment driving the answers

Just wanted to draw your attention to an article in Science Magazine concerning the evolution from prokaryotes to eukaryotes focusing on archaea as being far more like eukaryotes, foreshadowing the leap single cell evolution.
