Melanie Melanie Melanie, we love you — or used to love you, until we saw this column yesterday — but you have got to drop this “intelligent design” insanity as soon as you possibly can. \

This is not a new obsession of hers.

From 2007: Losing faith in reason

In suggesting that life sprang into existence without any kind of governing intelligence, they fly in the face of the evidence emerging from science that the hitherto unimaginable complexity of life forms, including the living cell, makes it scientifically impossible for life to have emerged without some kind of intelligent design.

Nevertheless, the Dawkins-ites are lionised as apostles of reason. Meanwhile, those scientists who are doing what scientists are supposed to do — follow where the evidence leads them — and who have concluded as a result that life was created by a guiding intelligence, are hysterically smeared by the Dawkins camp.
