We can do that if you like. Which posts in particular? The ones that seem like candidates to me are #30(?), #31(?), #41, and #43.

And do you want them moved to a new thread or an existing thread? If the latter, which one?

I think a new thread is fine, I don't recall if we've had a thread about the capacity/morality of the Designer(s) specifically?

Well, we do have a Theodicies thread which might fit.

Given the absence of any objections or alternative suggestions, I've provisionally moved all four posts plus Sci's later response there, and added an explanatory note in that thread. The move can be undone or redone if folk, esp. Sci, are unhappy with it.
