Harv (to Duane) citesWell, I'll try some semblance of trying to educate you about Christianity. The world was made subject to decay and meaninglessness so that God in hope that it will be liberated by God (Rom.8:19-23):

Did St. Paul write that passage?
While poetically a valid teaching point, it is too much to assume it's true as anecdotal science.
The world's tendencies to "decay and meaninglessness" are not proven to be the outcome of deliberate design.

Intelligent Design is more evident in the works of recent times (abstract works) than in the miasma of creatures eating creatures without creating abstract works.
Harv never replies to Mike because Mike is just too hard to get along with (sic).
