As one prominent scientist asked, "If they're here, where are they?"

You can't find them in your living room means they aren't here? Does an ant know when you are watching its anthill? How is this a scientific demonstration of anything? Pretty ludicrous for you to be claiming you stand on firm scientific grounds regarding ID, based on the proud claim that you can't prove there wasn't intervention, whereas you reject the most obvious explanation for intervention, based on the exact same argument.

As you've just demonstrated, ID is a joke, not a science.

No, if the people who have spent man-centuries and huge sums of money looking for them can't find them, they why posit that they are here?

"Pretty ludicrous for you to be claiming you stand on firm scientific grounds regarding ID"

I think you've lost track of the argument. Better go back and read the thread again. The only thing I've said about science and ID is that ID doesn't reject any part of science.

"based on the proud claim that you can't prove there wasn't intervention, whereas you reject the most obvious explanation for intervention, based on the exact same argument."

You're just whirling off into fantasy now, attributing to me things I haven't said.

"As you've just demonstrated, ID is a joke, not a science."

What has been demonstrated is that you are willing to use straw man arguments.
