Here’s a neat video. I hope you all read this book.
Because everyone else has!
I donate to the Discovery Institute. Do you? Because you should. And make sure it goes to the Center for Science and Culture – they’re the guys who do the research on intelligent design.
More Stephen C. Meyer videos are here.

Add Fodor’s ‘What Darwin Got Wrong’ and the return of Aristotelianism, teleology and essentialism generally – Neo-Darwinism looks more than shaky.

I would be interested in your assessment of it. I have yet to read Signature in the Cell.

“Sudden origins of all major body plans in the ‘3-5 million year Cambrian explosion'”(Stephen C. Meyer, Jonathan Wells)
Isn’t this a good example of self contradiction coming from these biblicists?

Do you mean because of the 7 24-hour day creation? Most Christians think that the standard cosmology (the Big Bang) is one of the strongest arguments in favor of God. Christians love the Big Bang. We cry for the Big Bang at night. It’s the first argument we use in debates, and probably the strongest, along with the fine-tuning argument, which is tied in with the Big Bang. The discovery of the Big Bang made it possible to be an intellectually-fulfilled theist. Of course, the creation of the universe 14 billion years ago is NOT compatible with atheism, which requires that the universe be eternal.

Thank you, Wintery! I love the Big Bang discovery! I wanted clarification on this because there is confusion everywhere about who is on what side.
Earlier this Spring, I went to hear a YEC. He presented plenty of good science, spoke of millions of years and then made the claim at the end that the earth was only 6-10K old and everything was created by God in 6 24hr segments of time.
The ID folks need to be more specific about who the Designer is. There seems to be an assumption that everyone will just know it is Jesus Christ.

Stephen Meyer does not present ID as a biblical theology. He presents it as a viable, scientific theory about design in nature. He makes it clear that ID may have theological *implications*, but that people should follow the evidence where it leads, even if it leads to God.
