I do say ID has much to offer science as a whole.

You'd have more of a point if ID was producing some sort of informative content. Say, if the Discovery Institute actually discovered something. But all they do is try to make what we do know go away.

Well's essay on homology, on a more careful reading, is a typical creationist excursus with the usual melange of quotes, gaps, and controversies. A capsule summary, "It's all a house of cards, so there's room for design!"

Sir, evolution with atheism is ‘trying’ to make the what we have always known go away. And you throw out terms like ‘typical creationist’ as if there is no need to pay attention to anything they say. Am I a ‘typical creationist’?

You were kind enough to share a brief history about yourself so if you will – my turn. I currently design circuit cards, brew beer, can play pool with the best, and can beat most in darts with my eyes closed. I am a partner in a surf shop and my wife runs a company that puts her on the road quite often – even during 9/11 – which led me to this site because it was by far the best source of information.

I don’t know what a ‘typical creationist’ is – do you? Designing circuit cards causes one to look at the big picture as well as the intricate details. I must also work with every facet of the organization.

I do believe on the issue of evolution without ID - we will have to agree to disagree. And, not to apply a fatalist or fire and brimstone perspective, but time will surly tell.
