Intelligent Design Vs. Evolution

quote:

I think one of the most compelling reasons of God/intelligent design is the level of emotions in humans, think about it, if nature was the only controlling factor emotions would be very low on desirable traits for survival,

Things like oxytosin(bonding hormone), that are suited for survival, nursing, development and progression sort of speak to the opposite of this.

Sorta, but not really, emotions are a weakness in pure survival, humans will risk their lives to save one another due to love, compassion, duty, etc. As an example, many insects will sacrifice life to protect their colony or hive but it's not at an individual basis. Some higher animals like elephants and dolphins will try to defend and protect family but I don't think they knowingly place themselves in live or death scenarios to save each other, I believe it's primarily instinctual behavior. Watch any animal around a wildfire, if a young one gets separated from momma in a wildfire momma aint going in to rescue the baby where as humans are driven by strong emotion to save the child in a burning building. These strong emotions have cost many people their lives but the animal who is not emotionally driven to save its baby from a wildfire survives and reproduces again.
