I'll be running a contest to find the sickest Valentine's Day card. It can be something you find in a shop. It can be something you make.
I can not take part in that. I know I'd go way too far with it and be ashamed of myself for years.
Orson Scott Card continues to make an ass of himself.
For someone who hates writing synopses, that's a damn good comprehensive one of the Card article.
"Behe's conclusion is that since complex biochemical systems in advanced organisms could not have evolved through strict Darwinian evolution, the only possible explanation is that the system was designed and put into place deliberately."
Er, yeah. So 24 - 6 = Eggplant.
"1. Intelligent Design is just Creation Science in a new suit (name-calling)."
What, like "Strict Darwinists?"
"But the normal answer of the Darwinists is also a leap of faith. In effect, their arguments boil down to this: We have no idea right now how these complex systems came to be, but we have fervent, absolute faith that when we do figure it out, it will be found to have a completely mechanical, natural cause that requires no 'intelligent designer' at all."
Er. I notice that's not a direct quote. Or even an oblique one. Or one connected at all with any specific name.
