[ I think you missed the point. If you read that paragraph again, you'll note that the case in question was contingent on the scientific determination that design is detectable. It is that condition that confers the "chance" to detect design. ]

Possibly.. I see the wind and know that I cannot see everything there is.. and when my body has a fever that things are not always what they seem.. and a mirage shows me that what isn't can appear that it is..

A snowflake was not designed and yet it has intricate design.. and a Picasso print proves that a designer can be nuts.. I have faith the Universe was designed but if that designer could be proved then faith would be worthless..

The reason faith is so precious is because the designer of the Universe is unprovable on purpose.. Which challenges your spirit not your brain.. The brain don't like faith, and the spirit don't need the brain.. Quite simple really.. The designer of the Universe is more obvious to children, more obscure even opaque to rational thinking adults..

Is God COOL or WHAT.?.

Hm. I am convinced that the designer exists, and have faith that He is good. To me, that is the cool part.
