I paraphrase Churchill, from his mandatory A History of the English-Speaking Peoples: "Both armies appealed to the Almighty, and the Most High, seeing nothing in zeal or piety to recommend one side or the other, must have allowed purely military matters to decide the contest."
The most zealous and pious design advocate must surely believe that there are some objects in the universe that owe their forms to the purely physical action of unconscious material. Having gone to the trouble of working out the laws of gases and liquids, can the Most High not trust them to generate, unsupervised, the shapes of the clouds?
Suppose you invent/design a new material with properties that have previously never been known. A whole "universe" of products and industries spring up based on this new material. Can you not claim credit for being the initiator of this universe?
Now, add to this the idea that you know ahead of time, when you invented/designed this material, everything that would precipitate from it...and you decide to do it and set it all in motion. That's how I picture God's rule over all created things.
