Unintelligent Design
I’m tired hearing about "Intelligent Design." Any time a discussion turns to the topic of where we come from, somebody always drags out, “Only God could have designed this world because it"s so complicated.” They used to call this view Creationism but they changed the name to Intelligent Design to make it sound more scientific.
Me, I think what we"ve got is "Unintelligent Design." Our bodies are always breaking down and getting sick. If you had a car that was always breaking down, would you call the guys who made it "intelligent"? Just look around at the other species. Humans spend most of their time shooting, stabbing and killing each other. Then you got your squirrels, weasels, dogs, crocodiles... Who could possibly say that the one responsible for creating humans and these other plug-ugly animals was intelligent?
Wanna know the truth? Other than cats, I can’t think of a single species who couldn’t have been designed better by my old maiden Aunt Sofilia after one of her serious bouts with a jug of corn likker.
Let’s stop calling it Intelligent Design. I submit from this day forward we call it “Aunt Sofilia Design.”

“Then you got your squirrels...” This coming from a creature that licks it’s self and calls it “bathing” and then gets a hairball as the result.
Duke: “..coming from a creature that licks itself and calls it “bathing...” This coming from a creature that uses a chain link fence for a walker.
National Geographic just did an article on how the feline species is the most efficient predator on earth. Also we can trace our lineage back almost 100,000 yrs. We may not live long, but our “design” has kept us from going extinct like other animals.
So Hazy, I take it you’re not a believer in the “Primordial Soup” theory. Personally, I think OUR design (felines) could not be improved upon, except the longevity thing. Ever look in the mirror? It’s perfection personified!!
Dusty, Duke the squirrel doesn’t look like he’s using the fence as a walker --- he looks like he’s impaled on it! Maybe we should call 911!
