It is certainly true that Muslims have the same idea as the Christians who attack evolution.

quote: No Muslim Would Ever Say, "There Is Intelligent Design" Instead of "Allah Created"!

http://www.harunyahya.com/new_releases/news/intelligent_design.php

An excerpt:
"Intelligent Design" Is Another of Satan's Distractions

"In rejecting one false claim such as evolution, one must be very careful not to fall prey to another of Satan's snares. One of Satan's main objectives is to prevent the recognition of Allah by any means possible, and to cause people to ignore His remembrance.

"There are those whom Satan has not been able to deceive with the concept of evolution. But if he can divert them in another direction, such as that of "intelligent design" he will again have achieved his end, in turning people away from remembering Allah.

"How Satan manages to appear in the name of truth and causes people to deviate by obstructing truth is revealed in the Qur'an:

"He [Satan] said: "By Your misguidance of me, I will lie in ambush for them on your straight path. Then I will come at them, from in front of them and behind them, from their right and from their left. You will not find most of them thankful." (Qur'an, 7:16-17)

"It should be known that overturning the theory of evolution and revealing the "chance" mindset as invalid both demonstrate the existence of Allah, by Whom everything was created, and not of "intelligent design." "

See http://www.harunyahya.com/

Isn't this almost exactly what creationists and IDers say? Substitute "God" for "Allah" and "Bible" for "Qu'ran". The argument is the same.

But I thought this line said just the opposite?

"But if he can divert them in another direction, such as that of "intelligent design" he will again have achieved his end, in turning people away from remembering Allah."

That you cannot believe in 'intelligent design' and believe in God (Allah) also.

Good link. Keep posting them. I want as many evolutionists on FR on record comparing Creationists to extremist muslims. Just so everyone can see and there's no doubt where everyone stands.

Keep 'em coming.
