MY theory of Unintelligent Design (The universe just *is*) also predicts that matter is organized and acts according to predictable laws.

Is this a theory you genuinely espouse, or is it one you fabricated for the sake of argument? If it is the latter, what's your point? Have you somehow demonstrated that the presence of organized matter functioning under predicatable laws cannot be explained by intelligent design?

A little of both. I did bring it up to make a point. There is no way to figure out if my assumption or your assumption is true. Neither is testable. They are philosophical positions, not scientific theories. The observation that the matter is organized and acts according to predictable laws is not enough info to make a scientific choice.

"Have you somehow demonstrated that the presence of organized matter functioning under predicatable laws cannot be explained by intelligent design?"

Nope. You have also not demonstrated that the universe doesn't just *exist* with no intelligent designer either.
