Proponents of intelligent-design theory frequently decline to be pinned down on these points. They do not even make real attempts to reconcile their disparate ideas about intelligent design.

ID is a mathematical model that establishes a probability of X happening randomly. It is not a theory of origins.

It says that accidental progress to where we're at today is pretty darn unlikely.

That mathematical model gives impetus for those using any particular model of origins to relook what they're theorizing.....even evolution.

This thread's been dead for a year. I suggest that you bring up your ID arguments in the next appropriate thread -- a new one. I'm sure one will pop up in the next day or so.

Thank you so very much for your post!

Indeed, I suspect there will eventually be a formulation - which cannot be denied - that illustrates there was not enough time and information content to have evolved biological life on earth through an unguided process of random mutation and natural selection.
