Namaste,

 

Would gene therapy qualify as intelligent design? I figure that we

ourselves are a product of genetic engineering, many many thousands

of years ago, but not by some greater figure as a God. So there is

some intelligent design in the world..........look at pets.........

 

I just read that Stalin was trying to mix apes and men to come up

with a super warrior. Unfortunatley he was a few years too early,

today he could have easily done it.......Now is that intelligent

design.

 

'God' doesn't do anything, evolution and 'intelligent design' by

beings is what happens..............Tony.
