Default Re: Wrong!

We might give a superior mile at such a superstitious notion, and explain that the arranging was really done by the blind forces of physics, in this case the action of waves.

It's a major, unprovable assumption that the forces of physics are blind. Physics also operates by natural law, not random chance. Dawkins assumes there is no mind behind the universe which is the question at issue.

So the question is, how do we know whether there was a conscious force that structured the design with that particular end in mind?

How do we know there wasn't? The point is that ID says there will be evidence of design in the universe, which there is. It's a prediction with some evidence that it's true, not an assertion of absolute truth.
