"Describe for me, with clinical precision, an experiment in evolution. Describe an experiment wherein the outcome of "G-d didn't do it" is not known before the results are in."

Evolution doesn't argue that god didn't do it. It limits itself to the observable facts. If ID did the same, there would be no ID.

"Evolution doesn't argue that god didn't do it. It limits itself to the observable facts. If ID did the same, there would be no ID."

Sir, many evolutionists *do* argue that "God didn't do it." You cannot deny that -- unless you are disingenous or live in a cave. Ever read Dawkins -- the guy evolutionists routinely gush over?

The second point is that many ID advocates do *not* argue explicitly that "God did it." More precisely, my position is that *science* shouldn't put the name "God" on Intelligent Design. That's just not the role of science. But it *is* the role of science to *recognize* intelligent design, because it is inherent to the natural world.
