I guess since there is only 3 choices I will pick designer. And my designer and creator of the carbon atom would be known as the billion trillions of stars, including the past and future ones. But when you really look at things, there is nothing all that special about the carbon atom. After all, they are just made from the super simplistic hydrogen atom with it's lonely one proton,neutron and electron. No magic needed. Pretty benign if you ask me.

@thybigballs You need to study the carbon atom and its characteristics. It is unique and special beyond imagination. Without that uniqueness there would be no life on earth. Its made of particles that are unique and special beyond imagination. Ditto water. Of the billions of compounds, there is only one that has the qualities that could support life.

@stevebee92653 I agree with your post except for the part where you said the carbon atom was "special beyond imagination" as this seems to indicate a necessity of what is commonly known as a god that spoke to humans. On a completely different note, check out "hypothetical" types of biochemistry. It's purely hypothetical but so are a few things in this video. Maybe science can one day get past all the hype's and have actual answers(even if it proves "god"). The theory of everything, if you will.

@thybigballs I hope someday we will get the answer. There are so many amazing Puzzles. My guess is we never will. It will drive those of us who are interested crazy for our whole lives. But thinking about it, and trying is sure fun.

Carbon has nothing to do with god that spoke to humans. I don't get that one.

Wouldn't it be way more designish if there were no atoms and everything was just simple different kinds of matter, like skin, stones and water as we perceive them?

Why the unnecessary complexity if everything is "clearly" designed?

Why do you obviously believe in the christian god whom ID is accredited to, but constantly refuse to discuss the matter by deflecting and accusing? You are obviously just trying to sound like a reasonable scientist.

[stevebee92653]

@ac1th Deflecting? Accusing? I don't deflect intelligent questions. But, really, there aren't many in this science, because it's nothing but fable and conjecture.

Unnecessary complexity? According to who? You? Atoms show unbelievable design. The building blocks are designed as well as all of living nature's systems.

Me: not religious. Sorry. You evos are bad guessers.

Thank you for this great video. I think many people have something like a God complex. They must feel like living forever when you hear them speaking about the "stupidity of godliness and spirituality".

[ac1th]

@stevebee92653 You request and imply authority in many comments and videos, that's what religious people do because they can't wrap their head around falsifiability and haven't yet left their childhood mindset for fear of losing something important. The 99% of all species that went extinct did so because their "design" was bad. In nature, only well functioning organisms survive, hence why the ones left look designed to fit their surroundings. You can't demonstrate your claim.

@proofandevidence So I take it you believe in evolution? You've said that so many times it's barf inducing. I truly feel sorry for you for being so gullible. Bye
