Perhaps, the Universe *is* an intelligently designed construct or
mechanism! But in the same token, it was clearly setup to be
self-maintaining and evolving. Life isn't the only thing in the cosmos
to evolve.
Stars also evolve, in that the 1st generation suns (the 1st ones that
formed after the Big Bang) were pure hydrogen that produce helium waste
during the process of fusion. When a 1st generation star goes nova, the
resulting heat and pressure create higher elements on the periodic table
that can't be produced in any other manner. Eventually this material
will coalesce forming new suns that periodically go nova and create even
higher elements on the periodic table. The latest research states that
Iron is probably the highest element that will fuse as fuel for solar
activity.
The Universe is ~18 billion years old and therefore the matter that you
and I are made of is from star material that has been through this
crucible of fire multiple times. That's evolution plain and simple!
Darwin didn't dream up his theory he observed it as a natural fact! It's
as plain as the nose on my face!
Merry Christmas to all the Luddites! And have a Happy denial of reality

All these questions simply show that you haven't thought Darwinism
through completely. The idea that Darwinism requires continuous
"improvement"
Instead of blaming the Creator in intelligent design for sickness and
death, why not hope for the day he fixes the hindrance to the human body
remaining well and regenerating thus not wearing out and dying, as we
know it has the basic design to do? But then there are those who do not
believe it required intelligent design to build something as complex as
the universe and the human body.
