Oh and sunlight does not just contain the wavelengths which are visible to our human eye. We see only a small part of the spectrum.. we are mostly blind in that sense.
So much for intelligent design.
And of course it produces wavelengths which can actually be deadly.
Well, sort of. Get enough ultraviolet, and you produce Vitamin D. Get too much ultraviolet, and you get cancer.
Or drink water, but don't get it down the wrong tube, the opening of which is conveniently located in the same tube that accepts liquid, or else you can die. (Oh, but water's also present in the atmosphere in rather exceptional quantities, at least in a lot of the world. But you can't use
that water. Hah!)
Or give birth. Fun part: The baby's comparatively huge head can just barely fit through, and the entire process is quite hazardous to both mother and child, or at least it was throughout
most of our species' existence. (It's no thanks to nature, and no thanks to any intelligent designer, but thanks to
our own scientific research that we've turned the birthing process from a very risky thing into something where death as a part of it is quite rare.)
If that's
intelligent design, either just
incredibly sloppy work, or else it's done with a very sadistic sense of humor. If a human engineer produced work like that, particularly things that result in death, he could easily find himself facing criminal charges.
"Here's a new blender. It does have a few bugs though. Sometimes it will fling blades at you, though these are typically going to hit you in the torso, and they won't penetrate too far in. Just don't ever run it with the blades at eye level. Have fun!"
In software design, you can sometimes get away with releasing something with "known bugs," because they generally aren't going to kill anyone.
Alternative: There
is an intelligent designer out there, but he's a college student, and we're just an accidental formation within a freshman design project in Self-Expansive Four-Dimensional Bubbles 101. Then this universe will just end up getting stashed in a binder and used as a portfolio for when the designer is out job-hunting for the first time.
Funny thing is people are willing to have faith in all sorts of other things but as soon as it comes to God it's the end of the world. We will never be able to explain every aspect of this world, just move on. I hate how some people's lives are devoted to trying to disprove God. Atheists are like a big cult and they want everyone to join them. Soon they'll even start going door to door.
What examples might you have?
A lot of things I see ascribed to "faith" are not quite the same kind of faith that I see in religion. One thing I've heard is love as an example of faith. I don't see it as that. You can easily find evidence of the presence or absence of love from another person, and indeed, we respond strongly to evidence of its presence.
I consider blind faith to be more of a failing of humanity than a strength. Blind faith is the ability to believe something when there's absolutely no good reason to do so.
However, I can still have faith in something. I have faith in scientists and their stated observations about how Earth orbits the Sun, and that the Sun and our orbit around it will continue to be reasonably stable for quite a long time. It's not blind faith though, because there's evidence to support it, and if I would choose to, I could investigate the matter for myself. (At which point it stops being faith, but instead becomes knowledge.)
In this sense, it could also, perhaps more accurately, be called "trust" and not "faith."
Most atheists are willing to accept the possibility that there might be a God even if they don't believe that there is enough evidence to believe in the supernatural with any certainty. Are you willing to believe that there isn't a God even though you see some evidence of his existence in your life? If you approach the debate from a standpoint of "this is what I believe, I refuse to consider counter-arguments, you are wrong if you disagree with me," then the discussion has nowhere to go and is meaningless.
Can you picture a universe without God?
It'd be darn difficult to provide sufficient evidence. God is presented as an infinitely powerful, infinitely loving, infinitely knowing entity.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
Infinitely extraordinary claims require infinitely extraordinary evidence.
