Of course not! But the programs and processes we design are. Whether it's "here are the steps that yonder tribe uses to construct an flint-edged blade" or a more modern "these are the steps to a judicial proceeding involving criminal activity".

And who knows? There are steps and processes that an egg and sperm follow to join and become zygote, which in turn follows rules and processes to end up as a full fledged human. Is that not an algorithm? Sometimes it even results in error codes and a woman's body spontaneously aborts the pregnancy. And two people with genetic diseases can give it to their kids. It's the definition of garbage in, garbage out.

Here is the thing though, aren't algorithms 'designed'? It certainly makes a good argument for a creator - and I myself am atheist. So, let that swim in your head for a bit. It's been swimming in mine!
