A. An Intelligent Creator designed and made us, because there’s "irreducible complexity", and besides, just look at the human eye! "It’s too amazing to have happened by chance". It’s perfection is obviously the result of the mind of a vastly superior mind (which would, BTW, be our particular God but that’s another story. First we’ll get them to think this is science, and then we’ll drop the other foot!)
The mind of a vastly superior intellect designed and made man in his own perfect image, right?
Q: Did he ever design anything that wasn’t perfect? A sort of trial balloon design that later screwed up when it was outside the Grand Warranty Period?
As in: Some rodent that went extinct because it couldn’t deal with its environmental challenges? Ditto for some mega-lizards? And why didn’t he design into our heads some altruism or respect for his other beloved designs, the birds, mountain gorillas, honey bees, salmon, etc. (I thought he loved all his otherwise defenseless critters?)
And why didn’t he specify that we should balk at the idea of persistently damaging his Earth's magnificent design? Surely you don't think he would design us imperfectly just so we could and would fail, so that he could then show up and selectively sort through us, just keeping the ones who tithed both physchologically and fiscally?? But also knowing that we'd succeed in taking down so many of his beloved other creations. Was it just to teach us something about greed and sin? Nooooo! For that He let The Exxon Valdez run aground and kill tens of millions of sea organisms, birds, seals, fish, etc.? Not to mention the livelihood of thousands of good Christian fisherpeople? NOOooooooo...oooo!!!
And if this is so, then why did he do such a good job otherwise, on the physical side of things rather than on the behavioral and ethical side, in designing us?
I mean, perfection in design should also be obvious throughout the organism, right?
But then you'd have to consider, in the physical design, that there are numerous deformities in every form of life, even in the non-life. The earth itself has cracks in it, so it isn't only the behavioral and ethical side that's amiss.

and...? ask me no questions so i won't tell you lies?
There are great imperfections in the human body alone. Products of natural selection, we have huge brains and skulls and walk on two feet. We needed these things for intelligence and cross-country travel in order to survive and reproduce.
But the cost is that mothers go through excruciating, life-threatening pain in childbirth because of skull size (for intelligence) and pelvis size (smaller to allow us to walk on two feet). Not to mention the 4 little toes on each foot that are good for nothing but stubbing on things and causing one to curse the creator (rightly so, eh?).
Evolution finds a solution, not the best solution. You would think an intelligent designer would find the best solution.
