re: #63 Fozzie Bear

I challenge someone, anyone, to explain to me how I.D. is a theory at all. It is a claim against another theory, but holds no specific claims of its own. The concept of the “irreducible complexity” of complex life is self-contradictory, because it requires the intelligence of the designer to be emergent (and thus not irreducibly complex) in order for it to not be a theistic claim.

Frankly it gets me all fired up and angry, not because it is ignorance, that I can understand, but rather because it is inherently intellectually dishonest.

I take it one step further, I think it’s inherently intellectually dishonest to have a problem with creationism and at the same time espouse a belief in a god… especially if it’s the god of the Hebrew and Greek texts.
