Personally, I'm Christian, and even if you're not, I'm glad to hear people talking about intelligent design. If it's not too personal, can I ask you why you don't believe in the Bible? If you don't want to talk to me about it, then that's fine and I'll just delete this comment.
For starters the bible was written by man. Also many of the stories in the old testament were almost exact copies of the Egyptian religion (like cain and abel). Which in itself doesn't make it not true, hell it might even add credibility to some people because that means the stories are even older. But also the end testament and new testament shows almost a polar opposite god. In the old testament he wanted to be feared, wanted animal sacrifices, and submission. In the new testament he was all about forgiveness. We know when you pass down stories they get messed up. If you tell your friend something to tell his friend to tell his by the time it gets to the destination its a completely different story. So the fact that the people that were there, like Abraham, did not write it it seems that the stories likely got messed up.
There might be some truth to it though. I really cant say for sure because obviously I wasnt there and I never try to say that I know for a fact what is real or not (as some people do who usually have an invested emotion in the subject).
But with all that said it seems from a numbers standpoint the likelyhood of something intelligent creating this is more likely than just happening by chance. There's no way cells could figure out how to design such a complex working system with no intelligence (like heart for pressure, lungs for air, stomach for absorption). Alot of people will point out and say "if something intelligent made us than we wouldnt be so susceptible to disease and death", which is easily debunked because we ourselves are intelligent but we cant even design a car that will last forever. A car is similar to a human body in many ways if you really think about it. Both have complex mechanics
Thats just my little rant on the subject. Sorry if I was boring. I think about it alot.
I personally think part of the beauty and intelligence is if it was done by chance.
I've kind of been stuck on this like, endless cycle of the universe idea; basically the big bang theory but at the end when all the matter and energy has been dispersed and coalesces again, another bang goes off and starts the cycle again.
Kind of allows the chance for life to develop in any way, with any composites in any environment.
I believe in the universe
