My "intuitive" response to molecular science is starting with how molecules/atoms of the elements are created right from the beginning, in the dense cores of the stars themselves . We didn't discover helium till we noted it in the Sun originally and now we know that this progressive formation of heavier elements are forged in the solar furnaces . From lighter Hydrogen on up thru fusion ... there is no stasis in the solar furnaces that requires a helping hand from above .

Somehow that informs me that there is , no matter how improbable to our more naive history of understanding this great majestic alchemy now known that gives rise to all the other elements of matter in the universe . This process only 2 centuries ago would not have been possible to have even dreamed of or concieved . And so it may remain for present day biochemists to unlock the mechanisms of the rise of complexly ordered systems of inorganic to cybernetic chains but like solar evolution & element formation the mechanism will surely be found .

Is it blind watchmaker or ID ?

Well that depends whether you are a poet or a scientist and what specific area you have labored your life in (or chose to be indoctrinated in )but most people should strive to be a little of both yet there will always simply be extremes and no one so far "wins" . The appreciation & knowledge of the process is essential and where there are limits those limits will be naturally investigated till the answers are found , as long as we have the liberty to explore , gather data & continue building on current understanding .
