My argument is and always has been a practical one: How can you apply amorphous musings (no offense) to the modern scientific model? Answer: You can’t.

We're not.

To look at the epistemological rigor of a modern scientific model is not to engage in "amorphous musings."

Well, I did say “no offense.”

But seriously, there is a pretty bright line here: is is possible for ID/religion to be applicable to science? No matter how long the road you take, it still leads to a chasm that cannot be leaped (lept? leapt?). No matter what we are talking about in this sometimes debate, sometimes yelling match, that is what we are talking about.

Epistemological discussions feel good and I certainly enjoy reading them, but they don’t move the ball.

Again IMHO and YMMV.

BTW: I haven’t had a chance to wish you ladies a lovely and blessed day (evening, weekend, week, etc.)! Please take this as such a wish :)
