“Given sufficient time, the non-random survival of hereditary entities (which occasionally miscopy) will generate complexity, diversity, beauty, and an illusion of design so persuasive that it is almost impossible to distinguish from deliberate intelligent design.”–Richard Dawkins
For Dawkins, the only thing that distinguishes Survival of the Fittest from Intelligent Design is the assumption that beyond humanity there is not even one more complex, beautiful, or intelligent being in the entire Universe.
Where is the Scientific Method in this assumption?
If evolution is true, then it is probable that there are more complex, beautiful, and intelligent beings in the Universe.
If evolution is not true, then it’s a Certainty.
He is clinging to improbability.
