A Dialogue Concerning Intelligent Design
Somewhere a dialogue is presently taking place concerning intelligent design, and it may be going something like this:
ID Proponent: DNA. Genetic code. Language. Commands. Information. Intelligent design.
Darwinist: Wedge.
ID Proponent: Cambrian Explosion. Pattern of Explosions. Cosmic Fine-Tuning. Intelligent design.
Darwinist: Wedge.
ID Proponent: Complexity of life. Irreducible complexity. Specified Complexity. Intelligent design.
Darwinist: Wedge.
ID Proponent: Human intelligence. Creative Genius. Love. Music. Art. Leonardo da Vinci. Beethoven.
Darwinist: Wedge.
ID Proponent: Molecular Machines. Molecular motors. Cellular factories. Intelligent design.
Darwinist: Wedge.
ID Proponent: Science. Evidence. Data. Observations. Intelligent design.
Darwinist: Wedge.
ID Proponent: Atheism: Richard Dawkins. Daniel Dennett. Sam Harris. Eugenie Scott. Barbara Forrest. Stephen Jay Gould. E.O. Wilson. Michael Ruse. P.Z. Myers. Many others. Wedge? Irrelevant.
Darwinist: Hmmf. Kitzmiller.
ID Proponent: Judges can’t settle science. Courts can’t change data.
Darwinist: Kitzmiller.
ID Proponent: Judge adopted false definition of ID.
Darwinist: Kitzmiller.
ID Proponent: Judge ignored positive case for design.
Darwinist: Kitzmiller.
ID Proponent: Judge copied many errors into ruling from ACLU. Judge ignored ID rebuttals. Judges make mistakes all the time.
Darwinist: Kitzmiller.
ID Proponent: Judge ignored peer-reviewed pro-ID publications. Meyer, Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington. Dembski, The Design Inference. Beye/Snoke, Protein Science. Others.
Darwinist: Kitzmiller.
ID Proponent: Judge ignored pro-ID research. Minnich’s flagellum research.
Darwinist: Hmmf. Type III Secretory System has flagellar parts.
ID Proponent: Not an explanation. Huge Leap.
Darwinist: Type III Secretory System has flagellar parts.
ID Proponent: Flagellum: Rotor, Stator, Bushings, Motor, Propeller, U-Joint, Rotary Engine 100,000 RPM. Irreducibly complex
Darwinist: Type III Secretory S
