[Tribune7]

Bacon would not hold Behe in high esteem.

Actually, he probably would.

Again, when man contemplates nature working freely, he meets with different species of things, of animals, of plants, of minerals; whence he readily passes into the opinion that there are in nature certain primary forms which nature intends to educe, and that the remaining variety proceeds from hindrances and aberrations of nature in the fulfillment of her work, or from the collision of different species and the transplanting of one into another. To the first of these speculations we owe our primary qualities of the elements; to the other our occult properties and specific virtues; and both of them belong to those empty compendia of thought wherein the mind rests, and whereby it is diverted from more solid pursuits.

Care to explain how? Anyone can cut and paste. Be a man. Of course, I have already shown you how you make absurb assumptions (philosophy=religion) when the basis for Bacon's life works was to separate philosophy from religion. Duh.
