Why Did The Intelligent Designer Make Us Stupid?

religionist: Unfalsifiable. Can never be proven wrong. Don’t you want beliefs abiding, beliefs ancient and beloved and upheld by the bulwark of the intelligent designer? All you scientists have to say in your defense is that these magnificent spires of faith, these tremendous mysteries, have the one quality that we all seek, the selfsame quality of their inherent truth: They are unfalsifiable.
scientist: Yes, almost like Thomas Chatterton. Highly creative, and unfalsifiable unless you actually look.
