There are some threads about that on FR and any of the evos who have been in these debates for more than a couple months know that.

It would seem pretty obvious to the casual observer that order and complexity are indicators of intelligence and design, but I guess that you have to be educated into NOT believing that.

You’d think that Newton and Einstein believing that the universe showed evidence of a creator and design would be good enough, but I guess some think they know better than them.

It is also obvious to the casual observer that the Earth is flat, and yes, you do need to be educated into NIT believing that.

Einstein never said there was scientific evidence of God or intelligent design. Like many scientists, he was inspired by the beauty of the universe as revealed by science. Science is a study of God's work inasmuch as it is a study of the universe He created, but science is a creation of man and it only needs to be consistent with itself and the truth revealed in natural phenomena.

Citing Newton is a little dicey here. Newton did his work at a time when boundaries of natural science were just being worked out. Newton was a scientist, and a Christian, but he was also an astrologer. Astrology is not compatible with Christianity as it is based on dodecatheistism.
