Intelligent Design

I understand the theory of intelligent design to be as follows.... lets take all the wonderfully complicated natural phenomenon that science is in the process of explaining (often in contradiction to the established religious explanations)and tack on the end... "God did it". It doesn't add anything to our understanding of the facts. It merely provides a place for a god for those people that require it. People who are emotionally secure and mature are generally happy to admit they don't know everything or may never know something or may change their views as new evidence presents itself. These people are often called arrogant by some religious people. I understand my place in the universe. I take responsibility for my own actions. Life is not fair and has no underlying purpose. I don't need a promise of a reward to do good or to act ethically. My moral code is surprisingly simple, try to do do as much good and as little harm as possible. Of course you are free to add a god to your worldview to fulfill your needs. Good for you.
