Today there are more than 200 known parameters necessary for a planet to support life--every single one of which must be perfectly met, or the whole thing falls apart.

I think there is a lot of arrogance in that statement. It assumes the
only life forms possible are those like we have on earth.
I think life is like a fire. It is fairly hard to get started but once
you get it going, it is hard to stop.

There is some merit to the idea that comets can seed a planet with
life or the precursors of life. The proof would be finding a comet
with something living on it.

The real hang up is you have to believe in evolution.

I saw nothing in the article precluding evolution. I think the term
'by design' was used.


Creationism.

Paul Davies has said that "the appearance of design is overwhelming".
I must have missed the word 'creationism' which I assume precludes
evolution, in your terminology?



Intelligent design assumes creationism.

And does not exclude evolution.
