God created evolution and Darwin and everything else.

Are all scientists as articulate?

Why would you think he is a scientist?

So you are claiming there is not scientific explanation for the origin of life?

Why are Christians on this board always the ones to bear false witness ...

Yes, but the author of this article does not have the necessary expertise to really contribute much to the argument. While he is a Ph.D., his specialty is neither genetics nor organismal development. It would be sort of like allowing me, with my doctorate in molecular genetics to design the invasion strategy in Iraq. I can have fact-based suggestions, but my level of expertise in that area does not approach what would be required to have a realistic chance of success! In my mind however, there has never been a conflict between the concepts of intelligent design and evolution. I simply regard evolution as a possible mechanism by which the intelligent design was achieved.

I'm a graduate student studying Neuroscience and I have been studying Biology for over 6 years in state universities under some of the biggest names in Science (nobel prize winning laureates, etc.) and I see no way that Darwin's theory could explain all of the complexity that is life. Even the most seasoned scientists I've dealt with when confronted with the immense numbers of protein-protein interactions that much occur in exact fashion, for example, hint at the impossibility that life could evolve to it's present form over millions of years by chance. I'm a firm believer in Intelligent Design but I understand the that Darwin's theory is currently the only way that scientists have to explain how life came about and I keep my personal religious beliefs out of my workplace because I know that Creationism cannot be proven absolutely either because that would deprive us of our having to rely on faith in God.

[tallhappy]

Huh? Try to explain, if possible.

[neutrality]

You've never been in an evolution vs creationism thread have you

[Publius6961]

What's a non sequitar?

Interesting hypothesis. One may not leave God aside and keep an open mind because *zap* that makes one a bigot.

It's gonna take me a while before I can wrap my mind around that profound statement. I may have to consult Hawkins...

[tallhappy]

The people who participate in these threads are not scientists and do not understand science.

They are not able to separate their religious visceral reactions from objective discussion or analysis.

I'm talking mainly of the pro-evolutionists.

[Publius6961]

shhhhhhhhhhh

No.

Not what your sentence read.

Because you twisted his words to state that he made a statement of position which he had not.

[narby]

NOTE: This is a 'truth of science' debate. Leave God out of it, and keep minds open!

Yeah. Right. And I've got a bridge to sell you.

The Discovery Institute proposed exactly this tactic in their "wedge" document, so they can first establish that science can study the supernatural, then they will inject God into the mix.

This is PR and religious emotion, not science.

[tallhappy]

Because you twisted his words to state that he made a statement of position which he had not.

Obviously this was your point, einstein.

Explain how so.

[EricT.]

Yawn. More BS hyperbole from religious ignoramuses.

So open minded and intelligent of you to scan the headline, completely skip reading the contents of the article, and then assume that "religious ignoramuses" are to blame for your evolutionist dogma being questioned by science. Glass houses and stones are your environment tonight.
