Rather than convince detractors that intelligent design was truth, Marshall repeatedly said he wanted the theory to become part of the scientific discussion, asking scientists to have tolerance toward his view.

Now that Dr. Behe has admitted that ID requires no facts, Professor Marshall has a ways to go to start a "scientific discussion" on ID.

I don’t mind the idea of amino acids forming in some pool and sticking together to make peptides. I don’t mind the idea of purines and pyramidines forming in some other close by pool and sticking together with some sugars that have formed there, and some phosphates that are hanging around, and producing short strands of self-replicating nucleic acid.

I’m just wondering how the nucleic acid started making protein - where did the enzymes come from? I don’t think the protein pool could have made the right enzymes. And how does the nucleic acid get long enough to code for proteins with no enzymes? How do you make proteins without rRNA, mRNA and tRNA and why would you have them before you made proteins?

Now that Dr. Marshall has admitted that Evolution requires no facts, Professor Behe has a ways to go to start a “scientific discussion” on evolution.
After all the facts are indisputable, aren’t they?

The greatest barrier to the truth, is to believe that you already know it. Which means no further study in that area is necessary unless it affirms the belief that you already have, any evidence to the contrary is dismissed out of hand.

Science is not really open to new ideas, just the ones they like.
