...scientists have for the first time demonstrated the step-by-step progression of how evolution created...

Evolution is their god?

P.S. How can anything be created without an intelligence?

How can anything be “created” without an intelligence to do it?

... we've already got two threads going on this subject,

You “created” them?

NASA's Spitzer Finds Hints of Planet Birth Around Dead Star

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

Oh, that is dead star, not Death Star, sorry...

create: (v) to bring into existence, to originate

creation: (n) the act of bringing into existence, the acto of origination

from "creatio ~onis" feminine, verb, Latin: "the begetting of offspring"

no need for intelligence in the primary english definition. no need for it logically: cases in point - the light you see by was created by unguided nuclear processes in the heart of the sun; the oxygen you breathe is created through unguided fusion in novas and supernovas, it is also "created" or liberated from carbon dioxide through the unguided process of photosynthesis. in the same way, evolution creates through unguided processes. now, whether the processes themselves (fusion, photosynthesis, evolution) were intelligently designed... science cannot say one way or the other, nor does it matter to science.

NEXT!

It takes some sort of intelligence to act...

To: Sir Francis Dashwood

act: (n) an action, something done, process through which something is done

again, from Latin: actio ~onis: activity or action

oxygen acts on iron to produce rust, quite without intelligent direction.
no intelligence implied, and none needed.

much like your apparent assumption that you own the words being used.

NEXT!
