Hey, hey, fallen world, remember? They (or the DNA) used to be perfectly healthy and intact in the beginning, but has deteriorated since, i.e. they have de-evolved.

The design is perfect. Problem comes in manufacturing. The same with most flawed products

How in the flying fuck do you define "perfect?"

And which design? There are many different models of the product.

As long as I don't have x-ray vision, my eyes are far from perfect!

Perfect meaning most suited for the job how fuck do you define perfect?

That's vague and can't be measured.

Because perfect is a word applicable to a variety of different situations if I narrow it down or select what I want it to mean them I would be lying. You still haven't answered the question, instead you're just indirectly saying I'm wrong with no basis @needmorec4

1st half of your comment- no idea what you're trying to say. Please write coherent sentences. As for the second half, I just said that "most suited for the job" isn't a definition that can be applied in science. It's unfalsifiable and unmeasurable. I'm tring to make the point that you can't use the word "perfect" scientifically; it has no real meaning.

I was not speaking scientifically. If you actually read my first comment you would know that I was referring to design and manufacturing processes and NOT any scientific method. You're telling me I used a word incorrectly in context, for a context I did not use it in. Where is the logic in that? My second answer was from a linguistic perspective. Again, not the scientific definition

...meaning the metaphor doesn't work because the word doesn't work in the context of the metaphor and in the thing the metaphor is describing. And sorry for being a bit of a dick with my previous comment. I was talking like a pretentious jerk.

I should probably mention (to clear any misunderstandings) that my first comment was joke. My use of the word 'perfectly' stemmed directly from the fact that it was used in the picture.

Ah. I understand where you're coming from now. Sorry, I just like to play devil's advocate :P

I define perfect as if one little bit of that as design was different, it wouldn't work, as evidenced by mutations that change the eyes, and render people blind. Sorry, folks, Evolution won't be giving you better eyes.

Well we will probably stop human evolution by nrrly eliminating natural section and stuff with medicine. But if it weren't for that... we would keep evolving. Everything is always evolving. We haven't reached the "peak" yet, that's a common misconception if you don't know much about evolution

A bazillion years of experimentation to get it right.

Actually it's just adapting and still is.

I believe that perfect in this case refers to complete this to Wallace. There are parts of that I can't work without other parts. That means it doesn't make sense for one part to have Evald without the other part because I wouldn't have given any advantage to have one aspect without the others. So it just doesn't make sense for you to have

I believe that in This case "perfect" refers to "complete" and not "without flaw." Certain aspects of the eye cannot work without other aspects, so it doesn't make sense to have evolved coincidentally because some critical portions are useless and provide no evolutionary advantage without other portions (that wouldn't have evolved simultaneously). That points to an intelligent design which implies an Intelligent Designer. You wouldn't expect a mousetrap to "evolve" because the individual parts (spring, bar, base, trigger, bait) don't do anything special unless all the parts are present and connected.
