Why is this cause more likely than any other?

Because it is the nature of intelligent design to organize matter in such a way as to be intelligible, consistent, and functional, just they way the physical universe in my neighborhood happens to be.

You are attempting to argue that because a process "may" have occurred it is reasonable to believe that the process did occur.

No. I am attempting to argue that because a process "may" have occurred it is reasonable to believe that it may have occurred. Not only so, but intelligent design most certainly does occur, and every time it does, the result is organized matter that performs specific functions.

You have yet to explain why a different cause is less likely. As such, your claims are baseless conjecture.

I have never denied that "intelligent design" may have occured. I have only stated that you have offered no logical reason to conclude that it is the most probable occurance, nor have you even offered an actual mechanism.
