You're the one that made an assertion about the "Christian God," and that is what I responded to. Again, some of you can't even follow your own reasoning and arguments....
Truly, this is frustrating beyond words....
In post 144, I wrote that If hes [the intelligent designer] the Christian God, then according to the Bible, hes infallible. He shouldnt make any mistakes. Whales shouldnt have leg bones. Fruit flies shouldnt have miniature wings that serve no purpose.
You responded with The problem is, we don't know what that intent was, or is, so we have no standard with which to contradict. That's first and foremost.
Your answer violates one of the principles of scientific inquiry natural explanations to natural phenomena. As I wrote, By bringing the "designer's intent" into play, you are invoking the supernatural, which has no role in science.
Its not sciences business to determine what the designers intent was. It is, however, very much sciences business to figure out what things are used for. The leg bones of whales thus far have not been shown to have any function. Likewise, the miniature wings of fruit flies that are too weak to aid in flight also have not been shown to have any function.
That is what science does. It seeks natural explanations. The designers intent cannot be part of any natural explanation.
We share the same frustrations. It's just that you seem to believe in intelligent design, and I don't.
