However, if one compares humans with animals, the only component that sticks out is our brain. In all other aspects, our body is at best mediocre compared to animals. Our senses are not well developed and even if we train them we never get close to most animals. Our immune system is crap; animals are on average much healthier that we are and we even have doctors to keep certain trouble away from us. Our skeleton is not made for upright walking and brings us back pain and other trouble with great regularity. Even our brain is not well designed since we only use a fraction of it. Among humans, good design requires talent and experience and a deep understanding of the nature of the object to be designed. Supposedly God, if infinite, should have all of these traits without limits. However, if we humans are the product of intelligent design by a God, then it appears to me that the result is mediocre at best. Take the human eye. Often cited as evidence for intelligent design, even we humans have come up with artificial eyes that are far superior to the human eye. So if we supposedly are evidence for intelligent design, my respect for the designer has just dropped a notch. As I designer, I would try to use the best components for my design, and not just for one part of it, unless I have a restricted budget.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best answer:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><i>Answer by Fireball<\/i><br \/>flaws come from sinning.
