ARGUMENT FROM DESIGN
1) A perfect creator God would create organisms that have optimal design.
2) Lifeforms seem to exhibit suboptimal design. 3) It is uncertain what God could have had
in mind and whether the appearance of suboptimality was an intentional trade-off to improve overall
optimal design. 4) Therefore, God does not exist.
RESPONSE
How can one charge a perfect creator God with suboptimal design while being uncertain what
God could have had in mind and whether the appearance of suboptimality was not an intentional
trade-off to improve overall optimal design?
