Not even Charles Darwin believed that! The Theory of Evolution addresses the origin of species not the origin of life.

And follow that with a link to an article where scientists mutate an existing bacteria into another bacteria? That's not creation. That's mutation.

“And follow that with a link to an article where scientists mutate an existing bacteria into another bacteria? That’s not creation. That’s mutation.”

It’s not creation in the sense of creating life. It is creation in the sense of design. The designers controlled the "mutation" -- that's quite different from (say) irradating cells to cause random mutations. Just about everything “new” made today is a “mutation” of a pre-existing product, or products.

Consider, for example, the iPhone. It’s essentially a recombination of design “DNA” from older cell phones, iPods (a mutation of older MP3 players), cameras, and computers — yet no one would deny the designers were intelligent. The components didn’t just scramble themselves and evolve into the iPhone.

BTW, I’m not trying to argue the case for ID. I never claimed that it was, in any way, proven with regard to all the natural species in existence — it most certainly hasn’t been proven. However, it now seems obvious to me that ID is not a complete impossibility — not when even creatures of finite intelligence can redesign a life-form.

"That's not creation. That's mutation."

Yes, but is it 'intelligent mutation?' ;o)
