Comment on "Colliding With the Pharyngula"

"Wow, you've really risen the ranks in a matter of months to become a top-notch advocate for this. I honestly wish I could take it upon myself to go to the same events and make it apparent which side I'm on, but my current circumstances don't allow it to be risk-free.

The other day I was pondering the fact that numerous critics of ID accuse it of being a religious movement - even in cases when they admit that it is based on cause and effect knowledge of what we can observe - and not on sacred text.

It turns out that by their logic there have been huge sums of money funding a key "creationist" movement for some time now...

Maybe we should call the ACLU on this one?"

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

It's about time we've seen something to correct the misrepresentations in Inherit the Wind. If
there happens to be any screenings of Alleged in my area I will be one of the first to register.

In the meantime, perhaps someone should send the folks at Christianity Today a copy of "Summer
for the Gods" so they can more accurately report what they're trying to cover.

UD: Comment (Actually a Critical Question) on "Good Friday Thoughts"

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I asked this earlier, but didn't get an answer so I'll ask again.

If I hold that ID has the most powerful explanatory power, but don't think any real agency exists,
 am I still an IDer?

By this I mean in the context of an atomic model that - while not accurate to scale - still gives us
 a better understanding of how the whole thing works.

Like all theistic evolutionists - he's either not aware of the discrepancy he's ignoring or he's really
just another front-loader unwilling to admit what he really thinks. Case in point:

Interesting post! And pretty relevant to Behe's EoE as well. Amazing how many people accused
 him of making a pure estimate of his own in malarial resistance to chloroquine. Or claim that he
 ignored that there are already a trillion malaria cells in a single infected person.

Second comment on "Understanding Ontogenetic Depth, Part II"

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

In terms of PZ's response to you, the only claims he made related to the subject of your posts is
as follows:

"Step one is simply cell adhesion. Step two is gene regulation. Step three is epigenetics. That's it."

Now that's attention to detail. No surprise though that most of his response dealt with accusing
you of quoting out of context - the opposition can get pretty worked up when their own views
are put under critical scrutiny.

Understanding Ontogenetic Depth, Part II - Second comment

Apparently the use of the term "natural selection" over "evolution" requires justification when critiquing selection itself. Otherwise, the discussion becomes just plain confusing. Who knew?

I guess maybe I am pointing out the obvious, but whatever.

Nelson is elaborating on a hurdle that he holds selection cannot cross. Hence his use of the term "Natural Selection."
