If EVOLUTION is logical, they most of these things shouldn’t exist under ‘Darwin’ either.

Well there you go. One of the best arguments for evolution is the obvious evidence that many features are the way they are because they got there by small, incremental changes, rather than top down design.

Small, incremental changes are merely adaptation and therefore do not rule out initial intelligent design. How can life evolve if it never existed?

“Evolution is not the study of life’s ultimate origin as a path toward discerning its deepest meaning. Evolution, in fact, is not the study of origins at all. Even the more restricted (and scientifically permissible) question of life’s origin on our earth lies outside its domain…Evolution studies the pathways and mechanisms of organic change following the origin of life” - Renowned Evolutionist Stephen Jay Gould

I like this quote too:

“One could not be a successful scientist without realizing that, in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers and mothers of scientists, a goodly number of scientists are not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid” - James Watson, Nobel laureate and co-discoverer of the structure of DNA
