largely because the existence of even one intelligently designed feature in living things (at least prior to human beings) would overturn the Darwinian theory of evolution that currently dominates Western biology.

AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Where did these folks get their "logic" training, from a Crackerjack box?

"The existence of even one intelligently designed feature" would at most indicate that someone's been mucking with the genome at least once. It hardly "overturns" evolution, since the discovery would be 100% compatible with (among other scenarios) the thesis that life on Earth arose via Evolution, just as the rest of the evidence indicates, but aliens swung by the Earth at least once and did some tinkering:

Anyone who says that the discovery of *one* apparently designed feature would "overturn" evolution isn't using logic, nor approaching things scientifically, they're engaging in wishful thinking and irrational emotionalism in pursuit of a goal-driven agenda.
