[Roots]

I'm right with you in challenging what liberals have to say, I do it every day (I attend a University, we, the College Republicans, live for challenging these mental cases). Your comment annoyed me, it had to be addressed; and since when did I show support for evolution? (searching... searching... comment not found). I merely criticized Intelligent Design and have no problem criticizing evolution if the evidence presented itself - this is the basis of the scientific method. If you've got evidence that disproves evolution, then I'm all ears! (So is the rest of the scientific community). At least evolution can be disproved, we are all aware of that.

It is not my agenda to see to it that evolution remains, it is my agenda to point out that ID is an idiotic idea designed to preserve religion from the "evils" of rational thought and scientific findings... a justification for all that you have already invested in this "absolute". It is you, my friend, arresting critical thought for the sake of your "faith".

Mea culpa ... skepticism of one thing does not infer agreement of another thing. That's a trap I've pointed out so many times I'm embarassed to admit I've been snared myself. I'll grant you that, and I'm glad to hear that you too are prone to challenging issues various liberal groups find consensus on.

But you are in the same trap :-) My issue with evolution (specifically macro-evolution) -- aside from its bed-fellows -- is that it has largely become dogma. I simply don't know the ID position well enough (yet) to have strong feelings for or against it.
