wow you're an idiot
20For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

19One of you will say to me: "Then why does God still blame us? For who resists his will?" 20But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? "Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, 'Why did you make me like this?' "[a] 21Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use?

That isn't a valid point. You are using an intelligently created set of characters to use as an example for something random. I'm sure after so long you would come up with some random words by bashing the keyboard. With chaos comes order.

This would be true, except for one thing. Nature is NOT limited by these numbers. nature simply accepts them. There is no energy gain, or benefit from the form based on those numbers. It simply is.

The solar system, for example, is an organized structure. It does not imply or rely on a creator or designer for its structure or organization.

silly domesticated primate, it is! A massive one, it's just too big for you to understand it.
Did you not read a word he said? Space is organized due to gravity.
19For that which is known about God is evident to them and made plain in their inner consciousness, because God [Himself] has shown it to them.
20For ever since the creation of the world His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternal power and divinity, have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in and through the things that have been made (His handiworks). So [men] are without excuse [altogether without any defense or justification]
21Because when they knew and recognized Him as God, they did not honor and glorify Him as God or give Him thanks. But instead they became futile and godless in their thinking [with vain imaginings, foolish reasoning, and stupid speculations] and their senseless minds were darkened. 22Claiming to be wise, they became fools [professing to be smart, they made simpletons of themselves].
23And by them the glory and majesty and excellence of the immortal God were exchanged for and represented by images, resembling mortal man and birds and beasts and reptiles.....
25Because they exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator

That's silly, and even more so with those stars on it. I forget how many people here are silly , but this post just reminded me.
It's not a presence of a god that is indicative when one encounters mathematical constants. It has nothing to do with religion for me, but it screams intelligence! It screams Prime Mover!
Compare ATS itself to advanced mathematical formula.
Did ATS happen on it's own? Did it come into being without Simon? Would it exist without him, Skeptic, Springer and the mods?
It's a highly advanced combination of 1's and 0's. That's all. So that must mean it's just how things are, it's just there.
There's no such thing as Simon, Skeptic, ATS or the internet, no such thing as the MODS. I don't know the exact history of how the internet came about so that means that the internet, also, is just there. No prime mover behind it.
Poor argument. Comparing something known to have been created to something that has the illusion of having been created is preposterous. If the pinpointing of orderly mathematic constants in nature "screams intelligence and a prime mover" I'd suspect you're either lack the intelligence you believe you see, or that confirmation bias is driving your need for you to associate the laws of physics with an "intelligent prime mover". All this talk of "fingerprints" and the notions of mathematical formulas as being evidence of an "intelligent prime mover" is actually another dull and egotistical exercise of humans anthropomorphising the universe.

Ah, gravity! Yes, that explains everything! Thanks so much !

I'm comparing two things which both required some form of intelligence in order to come into existence. I am baffled that you missed that part. The only thing poor about my argument is that it was lost on you. And that's really nothing to do with me. If you do not see intelligence being involved in the creation of the solar system then it is not I who lacks an eye for spotting intelligence.

Edit because I was being emotional and did not express what I meant to say the first time.
Support your point with evidence.
"It does!", combined with condescending petulance, proves nothing.
