If the world, the universe, and all life were created by God, as many (including myself) believe, then no scientific debate would be complete without discussing how Intelligent Design has worked to form all that we can know.

You don't believe that it's possible, but all the evidence shows that life cannot have been some grand coincidence, which means it must have been purposely created.

Your continued denial of this fact does not make you a scientifically minded rational thinker. It simply makes you a close-minded denier of the obvious.

You have a cognitive dissonance that borders on the fanatical.

You are arguing a religious point, not a scientific point.

If you want to argue within the realm of science, you need to bring scientific evidence.

The fact is that those professors who believe in evolution are terrified of debate with competent scientists on the ID side because they know that evolution can't stand on its own merits because it's a theory not a proven scientific fact. If they knew they could win the debate they would say bring it on, instead of trying to shut it down. Do you see any similarities with the global warming wackos who say the global warming debate is over when in fact it is just beginning, and guess what, the global warming wackos are losing big time.

I find it amusing how the Unintelligent Design crowd is so piss-in-the-pants horrified at the thought Intelligent Design may get a fair hearing. They always claim science trumps all, when in fact Unintelligent Design is about as scientific as tonight's lotto numbers.

Besides the very universe we live in can anyone name one thing - JUST ONE - that wasn't designed?

Unintelligent Design is the much longer stretch of the imagination....and it itself is a religion. So why should we give it one minute's more importance? Because mere man thought it up?
