ID is old and fossilized. The theory of evolution is the newer claim.
Old or new is beside the point. Which one is closer to the truth ? <------ THAT IS WHAT INTERESTS MOST PEOPLE.

Old or new is beside the point.Then don't argue that ID is the "newer" theory. It just makes you look dumb.

" Old or new is beside the point."
The claim was that older scientists are afraid of new ideas; that ID was a new theory. I pointed out that ID (in it's present form)is older than evolutionary biology (in it's present form). ID had its day and lost. It has yet to provide a testable claim about the alleged designer.

Old or new is beside the point. Which one is closer to the truth ? Define truth and what proof is required for truth. Not argument, proof.
