I am sure reason has very little to do with what you believe or do not believe.
"On what basis do you make this sweeping claim?"
Because there is no evidence conceivable that could not be used to support the idea of a designer. What possible evidence would you accept as being against the idea of a designer? Is there even a hypothetical fact that could go against the idea of a designer? I know of none.
"Is this something you've taught yourself? Is it "intuitive?"
It's a logical necessity.
"You want the hands of science tied by a philosophy."
More than that, I want the hands of science to be constrained by reality; by EVIDENCE.
"Fine. But don't expect the rest of the world to follow suit."
I don't. Most of the world is perfectly content to follow whatever mystical mush that is thrown before them.
I reckon that places the reality ball firmly in my court, then. Why you feel so obligated to avoid reality is one of those mysteries that science will never solve.
