They are not “silencing” IDers they are putting them in scientific perspective. Not all scientists (Darwinists or other) are atheists. Science is under continuous scrutiny from within the scientific community (aside from the philosophers, ethicists, religious rabble and politicians).

The “Darwinists” as most scientists accept criticism in the same way – not too well. It doesnt matter if it is criticism from the pope or from Einstein.

“The defensiveness with which Darwinists react to ID is revealing.” Its a “theory” of evolution – nothing says its correct or perfect. It will undergo changes as more scientific research is conducted. The adversity and “defensiveness” is in response to the same type of conclusions drawn in 1899 – we have all the answers we need.

Lets stop funding scientific research now and pump the money into the pulpits.

The defensiveness with which Darwinists react to ID is revealing. Unthinking adherence to any dogma is the antithesis of science. IDers point out some holes in Darwinism. That their alternative explanation is logically equivalent to a belief in FSMs does not detract from the value of their criticism or the work done to answer it.

If you don’t expect and answer criticism then you are not a scientist.

When self-appointed defenders of science seek to silence IDers, or talk of global warming “concensus” and “denial”, they are the ones violating the principles of science.

and henceforth your use of unscientific science allows me to counter Darwin with Intelligent (you know this stuff is so complex I cant think straight so it must be Divine) Design Theory.

Lets not forget the classic Unintelligent Design Theory, that some Unintelligent, Close-minded Supreme Being created everything the way it is and subsequently flushed it down the celestial toilet.

Cant science just be scientific?

Heisenberg and Godel demolished those fantasies early in the 20th century.

I know a pagan couple. Leftists, but nice harmless people. It’s all good as long as they don’t try to force their religion on others.

I recently read blog that explores the beliefs another group of people who would like to throw their hat in the religous-debate ring. This group held a ceremony at the Temple of Zeus and have gone to the European Union to become “official”. They are none other than the believers of not one but 12 Gods. Yes, they are the Greek Mythologists. I can’t wait to hear their views on the other religions and evolution!

For PR sake they should probably pick a name that doesn’t include the word myth.
