This is of course a very old argument, and I can sum up my position simply by saying that I see no convincing reason why complexity should require conscious design. If you prefer to assume conscious design, in fact, you open up a host of other long-debated complexities, such as the old question of how a perfect and omnipotent creator could come up with a creation in which chaos and evil are such prominent features. Questions beget explanations, and pretty soon we have Satan, and original sin, and virgin birth, and redemption through crucifixion, etc., none of which seem very probable to me.
