Probability Arguments for Intelligent Design

Are there no probability arguments for Intelligent Design?

You got me. The general consensus here seems to be that they exist. I’m not trying to make one. My interest is in the use of probability arguments to make the case for evolution.

Just look at population genetics. Quite a bit of work done there. Tens of thousands of papers.

Phylogenetics is the testable model.

What model is it tested against and what is the role of probability and statistics?
