. . .it doesn't conform to the basic standards of science . . .

The basic standards of science should not rule out something merely because it implies a force that cannot presently be directly observed. Just because that force may be personal or intelligent does not make the object any less scientific. What a bass-ackwards way to do science: rule out a possibity and proceed from there.

Yes, science has standards. Apparently you would prefer it have substandards.

LOL!

Amazing. A "conservative" who elevates feelings to the level of facts.

I'm always amazed at how easily creationists take up Lib tactics. ID is the new PC - trying to re-define reality to conform to a political ideology.
