Food for ridicule, boiled down:
1. Design implies constraints, embodying as they do, tactics for
success. Otherwise, bringing about one's intended ends by simple fiat
is available and cannot help but occur. Wishes become fact, upon being
wished, if there are no constraints.
2. The constraints upon a being comprise its natural world. Think
about it.
3. A supernatural being transcends natural constraints, by definition.
4. Therefore, positing a design, posits constraints, which imply the
inability to transcend the natural world of the designer.
5. Therefore, no designer is supernatural.
6. But a sufficiently advanced technology can look supernatural, to
paraphrase old what's his name. ;-)
