Re: ID/Evolution and Michael Behe
Supposedly? Monkeys with typewriters can not create Shakespeare. this is a common mistake. Let's say just by chance that Monkey on a typewriter pushes thousands of buttons. And let's say in that sequence the letters are arranged, "iamhungry". Did the Monkey just inform us of something? No...

Re: ID/Evolution and Michael Behe
But can you see my problem with your statement? How do you know the replanted trees aren't natural? How are you inferring design? I suggest that you are not - that you can distinguish because you already know that natural forests do not have same-age, regularly spaced, single-species trees. So you ...

Re: your guy's opinion on these guys?
Uum well the first 5 minutes of the clip offer nothing but a diatribe of insults.
There's a fine line between being funny and obnoxious, these guys went well beyond that.

Re: Noah's Ark?
and also, could God be hiding it from us? Finding the Ark would definitely be a blow to athiests and other religions...........but that would probably mess up "The Plan" There are plenty reasons why we haven't found it yet I guess. 1. The wood was used to make temporary / permanent shelte...

Re: ID/Evolution and Michael Behe
I've read everything you've written. It seems to me that some of it does not apply to what I am trying to discuss. Well to be more specific, I'm referring to what I said here: "You're possibly making the mistake (that many do) that ID proponents suggest everything in nature reveals design. It ...

Re: This looks interesting and seems to support a global flo
More evidence pointing towards a global flood.. Water and death throes ...So let us summarize: many dinosaurs around the world had been fossilized in an unusual swirling position—opisthotonic pose—for which their immediate underwater burial is almost certainly required. Many dinosaur bones as well a...

Re: ID/Evolution and Michael Behe
Of course an "I love Lucy" signal would imply design. But why? Precisely because natural astrophysical processes do not produce "I love Lucy" signals. This does not follow from any evidence of design. It follows from what we know of natural and artificial signals. But how does &...

Re: ID/Evolution and Michael Behe
I'm not sure how this applies. Could you please elaborate? What are your natural and artificial references? I'll grant that computer code is designed. If I found a laptop in the desert, I would have no doubt that it is manmade. But you do not seem to be comparing actual items. Instead you seem to b...

Re: ID/Evolution and Michael Behe
Isn't it rather ironic how a signal from outer space (an information code) would be considered a product of an intelligent source (aliens), while the DNA, as a very complex information code, must have been randomly assembled? y:-?

Re: I must be getting alittle paranoid
Just an off-topic question... but after reading the comments it came across my mind. Who hijacked the term 'fundamental' and made it into a bad word? Shouldn't we all want to be true to the fundamentals of our belief system? Hating other people who disagree with you is not 'fundamental' to the Chri...

Re: I must be getting alittle paranoid
I think this applies to more than just atheism. I would argue the issue is more to do the fundamentalist component than the atheist component. Islam, Christianity, atheism and other viewpoints all seem to have militant fundamentalist wings. As Christian, atheist and Islamic fundamentalists set each...

Re: ID/Evolution and Michael Behe
No, ID as a scientific mechanism by which certain traits are identifiable. - Anthropology - Archeology - Forensics - S.E.T.I. As Proinsias' link explains and as Ivellious remarked, these areas do not use ID http://www.discovery.org/a/3059 . An archaeologist does not look at a knapped flint and see ...

Re: I must be getting alittle paranoid
With all these new scientific articles that make the popular press like the recent one about the hybrid sharks, or the ones about a new earth like planet, or scientists creating life in the lab. Even though all of these have been throughly answered by Christian apologists, I get this sick feeling i...
