Biological complexity: touch and pressure sensing (Introduction)

DAVID: How much complexity must be demonstrated before it is fully accepted a designing brain is required to exist? And don't tell me infinity can do it. This universe is not infinitely old.

But you ARE telling us that infinity and eternity can do it – in the form of “pure energy” which has…not a brain, which of course is material, but some kind of immaterial consciousness that has no limits and no source. By giving it a name like “God”, you simply give it an identity, as if that somehow made the concept graspable. I totally accept the logic of your design argument, but I find your concept of non-finite, eternally conscious energy just as incredible as that of unconscious, infinite and eternal energy coming up with the goods. Once again, I would say that belief in either requires a leap of faith.
