No it isn't.

So there.
QuoteI find it mistifying that in this age of information, some people still deny the scientific history of our existence.

Normal answer
As you can not give a subjective answer, you can assert
It is always like this Christians=Atheists

Quote from: "Loffler"Yes, and thereby abandon your above hierarchy, since only two of those things have a designed purpose (nest and robot).
You should add probability here
A stick or a ball may have a purpose, so it is maybe made by intelligence
You are correct. A stick and a ball will have purpose just as soon as you Christians get around to finally presenting your evidence.

You're confusing premise and conclusion.

The difference in atheists and Christians is we atheists don't have baseless assumptions like this. And then you go and base your entire belief system on it.

If you find yourself pondering the reason why we will sometimes neglect to provide you with logical explanations, it is because we know you'll just end up ignoring it.  Reason doesn't seem to work on you. But I'll voluntarily exhaust myself on this issue:

If Douglas Adams were here he would call you a puddle. Simply because you have observed that man makes things, it doesn't mean every made thing was made by a being. In fact we have discovered many of these "makers" via science. These are the natural laws of course. Are you suggesting something made the makers? Or are the makers just bullocks too?
