But once each metaphor was stripped aside, the core ideas did not support the idea that natural selection could account for the origin of life and the meaningful complexity of organisms.

Without all the psycho-babble this is exactly what ID is stating. The more into the mircobial world we go the more pronounced that life is not random or by chance.

"But once each metaphor was stripped aside, the core ideas did not support the idea that natural selection could account for the origin of life and the meaningful complexity of organisms."

It is hard to believe that a real PhD in biology doesn't know that ORIGIN OF LIFE IS NOT PART OF EVOLUTIONARY THEORY!!

This whole article is probably a spoof of creationism, but that is only a theory.

Anyone who claims that evolutionary biology is about "random or by chance" quite simply doesn't understand it. But that's the common creationist cartoon-version of it. I just wish they'd bother to *learn* something about the topic before they spout off.
