The fine structure constant could also be evidence of intelligent design. I still have doubts about the methods and assumptions used in arriving at a 7 billion year old universe. Can you name any assumptions used in arriving at this figure, or is it so plain as to be a "given?" I tend to count the direct observation of humans as more reliable than indirect observation. I am also a firm believer in the fallibility of human reason.
"I still have doubts about the methods and assumptions used in arriving at a 7 billion year old universe."
So do I. The best estimate today is about 15 billion years.
You take everything to be evidence of intelligent design. It sure must make your arguments easy, when one takes everything as evidence of the conclusion to be axiomatic.
Clearly you are not married or you would know that nothing is EVER evidence of your conclusion, the axiom of the married man.
If you speak from personal experience, I support you in this.
