"And Mother Nature begat Evolution, and Evolution was the most clever of all the creatures in the Garden..."

From How to Speak Dog by Dr. Stanley Coren (on Pets.ca):

 

“The dog's tail was originally designed to assist the dog in its balance.”

 

“Evolution again seized an opportunity and now adapted the tail for communication purposes.”

 

“Evolution has used a few additional tricks to make the tails even more visible.”

 

NOTE: Here evolution is personified and described as though it acted with intelligence, yet this is contrary to the entire doctrine of evolution!  Indeed, this type of attribution of intelligent qualities to evolution is standard fair in the description of evolutionary processes in the writings of even the most atheistic advocates of this so-called theory of random development.  By cleverly describing fantastically complex processes in these convenient terms, together with the omission of the Intelligence behind the process, like the above examples where the “designer” is not identified although design is acknowledged, and the one that “seized an opportunity” and “used a few tricks” is called “evolution,” while seizing opportunities and using tricks are the exclusive domain of intelligent beings and not random processes, is the spurious tool of these deniers of the obvious to fool themselves and others into blindly following their mad dogma.  How do evolutionists describe the ‘arbitrary’ process of evolution in these terms and yet deny intelligent design in the universe?
