Life mimics life. I think we understood the human body enough to duplicate its basic concepts. It is how the world works and how we understand everything. The planet itself breathes through the changing of the seasons.
It's the idea that something created it that I cannot get behind. And that it is intelligent. Intelligence can only be understood through our perspective of it. It is a human concept and not a universal concept.
Too often we attach human qualities to non human things. This is the only way we really know how to make sense of the world, but it does not mean it is accurate.
I dont rule out anything. I have a hard time debating with most people about things like this. You said "its the idea that something created it that I can not get behind". That shows there that you are not willing to even hear other view points. You probably didn't even think about what I said. It's called confirmation bias.
That isn't what confirmation bias is. Nothing new has been presented to confirm or deny any sort of belief. You posed that an intelligent being made these machines we call our bodies. I only meant that the idea of calling our bodies a machine is not new and predates the modern use of the word.
I am completely willing to hear a different viewpoint. How do you think I got to where I am today? I am asking you to think about the words you are using. Intelligence and machine have meaning beyond the human construct. This is me asking you to literally have a different view outside the human one.
But this reply feels like you are trying to have issue with my words.
So let me rephrase in an effort to communicate more clearly. I have a hard time visualizing intelligent design because I wonder what designed that? How did that energy evolve? How did come to fruition in the first place? I am open to hearing you, but you have to say something of substance and not just a talking point.
Prove god is real

The universe simply is.

I'll even take starseed theory.
