Hi Stathis Papaioannou No. Intelligence just is, it's nonphysical like information, and precedes and is necessary for design to happen. That sounds a bit like a Turing machine, not sure.
IMHO It's the "nothing" that the Big Bang out exploded out of. I didn't say that the supreme intelligence was designed Roger Clough, rclo...@verizon.net 9/11/2012 Leibniz would say, "If there's no God, we'd have to invent him so that everything could function." ----- Receiving the following content ----- From: Stathis Papaioannou Receiver: everything-list Time: 2012-09-11, 09:29:46 Subject: Re: Re: If I ever doubt that there is a God, On Tue, Sep 11, 2012 at 10:40 PM, Roger Clough <rclo...@verizon.net> wrote: > Intelligence is by (my) definition an autonomous function, > so over-layers are not only forbidden, they are not needed. > > But God does have to follow laws he already created. > If you jump off of a building you will fall to your death. > > I'm missing a possible problem there. You say that order in the universe is evidence of an intelligent designer but you don't say that order in the intelligent designer is evidence of a super-intelligent designer who designed him. If you say the designer was not himself designed then why not also say the universe was not itself designed? -- Stathis Papaioannou -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
