The limitations of science (The limitations of science)

Of course it would not occur to him, or possibly to other listeners, that the computer is the product of intelligent design."-I'm not so sure that computers are the product of "intelligent design". Judging by all the updates I get from Microsoft I suspect computers have evolved, by natural selection of ideas that worked competing with ideas that didn't do so well. Alan Turing may have set down the basic general principles, but today's computers were not "designed" by him, nor by Bill Gates.
