Why do you think people who believe in intelligent design are stupid? Is it because they don't agree with you?

I understand it perfectly and am still planning to someday make a program that simulates it (if possible.)

And to answer the first post, I think it might be comparing the complexity of the universe to the sort of stuff we humans can create.

Um, ok. Animals would be born with slight differences. If these differences increased their chance of survival, they would mate and the genes would cause their babies to be born with those better differences. If they were born with slight differences that decreased their chance of survival they would die out before having babies. So, very slowly, they would get more and more complex, and would become better and better at surviving.

(Even though I wrote my explanation as fact, I didn't mean to say it was true or I agreed with it.)
