For a man in my position the issue of "intelligent design" is utterly irrelevant. Proposing that the universe was created by intelligence 1: doesn't answer anything (from where did this intelligence come from?) and 2: there is no reason to believe this intelligence was god. Yet this is always asserted, which makes it clear that these creation ideas are simply accuses for asserting cultural prejudices.
The argument is always as fallows: "We don't know where the universe came from, so it must have been the god that I already believed in"
This "argument" shows the kind of corruption we are dealing with. It is as if they are saying "thank god! I don't have the question my beliefs". Alas! mankind once again has used philosophy to evade philosophy.
These advocates of intelligent design have exposed religion exactly for what it is. For it is that great corrupting force upon the individual, the dead weight every man must carry, it is this evil thing we call culture—the anti-human!
What is religion other then an aspect of culture? What is culture other then the oppression of the individual? and finally my thesis: what is god other then the compensation for the damage done to the individual by culture?
Culture is a plague upon individualism and the health of mankind. Culture leaves mankind in a state of pessimism (as it should be) but the anti-human must compensate for this pessimism if it wishes to survive. It must overcome this natural urge to debunk anything that attacks at the very nature of man, or in other words, it must hide its doing from the immune system of man kind. What is it that culture offers to hid this sickness: God.
God compensates for this miserable life culture provides by offering an "after life". God compensates for our broken self-esteem and self trust by giving us "love". God compensates for "the inadequacy of reason and evidence" by offering "faith".
It is now clear, the more broken man is, the greater his need is for god.
If a man enjoys his life he has not need for a after life. If man believes in him self he has no need for "god's love". If man does not abandon his senses and his reason then he has no need for faith!
The worth and effectiveness of the individual and the need for god are inherent opposites. God is a concept created by culture to compensate for what it has destroyed. Witness the sickness my friends.
Any omnipotent being could not endorse this absurdity called "god". So we see, that any kind of being that religion claims, could not possibly claim religion!
If the universe was "designed" it was not by god. Because god is nothing more then a creation of this corrupt entity called culture to tame mankind, make him predicable, and make him exploitable.
