You cannot /possibly/ know that to be true!
I acknowledge I can't know with absolute certainty it's true, just as
I can't know some intelligence didn't purposely make these patterns
appear as if they followed statistical probability.
However, the standard is to identify evidence for a claim. Since
these patterns are consistent with unguided natural processes, that is
sufficient to support my claim. What evidence do you have the
existence of these patterns required intelligence?

The key word in your reply is "may". Circular arguments don't qualify
as evidence.
I think you are wrong.
You're entitled to your opinion, which is as good as any other
baseless opinion.

You can't always get what you want,
but if you try sometimes,
well you might find,
you get what you need.
