I said that I was there for the scientific arguments for ID and, where were they? Instead, they seem intent on asserting that the USA is a Christian fundamentalist nation in which ID should be accepted state/public school dogma. <br /><br />There were some flickers of interest when I averred that IDers would do better to defer the critique of evolution until they could assert positive evidence for ID, for example by showing that genetic information was already present in macromolecules spewed out by the big bang. Someone even said that was unlikely considering the temperatures and other conditions prevailing at that time. <br /><br />But I think the final straw was when I critiqued a claim that it is untrue that ID makes no predictions, when it clearly predicts that evolution will be proved wrong. Talk about ridiculous!? <br /><br />TomThosEMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13747040890064999594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37148773.post-82747913112301481412006-12-21T12:12:00.000-05:002006-12-21T12:12:00.000-05:00It reminds me of when a Christian banned an atheis...It reminds me of when a Christian banned an atheist from a blog awhile back because the atheist kept calling God the "invisible cosmic daddy." The Christian took offense, even though the description was very correct and even biblically supported. <br /><br />HAHAHA its marvelous to watch these CREATIONISTS and IDiots!
