    MSH: The question is, which of the two hypotheses is scientifically
    viable? We see scientific evidence of the workings of chance
    mutations and natural selection every day.

    DM: That's pretty shallow. The cosmos is full of complex SQ.
    It's some achievement, reason cannot help but see design
    as Paul Davies has pointed out. There may be a way to plausibly
    describe the cosmos in non-design terms, science generally attempts
    to do this, it consistently fails to do so and endlessly brings in
    design concepts in by the back door and in re-hashed forms See Narby's
    The Cosmic Serpent for example. Science fails to live up the standard it
    sets itself, so maybe the standard is wrong, it has also failed to put
    together a truly plausible and consistent case on this basis. The jury,
    down my street, remains firmly out.

    regards
