1. Not one scrap of what you have said points to intelligent design. My response--- Nor is there any evidence that the universe spontaneously organized itself without some intelligently directed plan and purpose. Isaac Newton famously claimed that a mechanical model of the universe in his home came into being all on its own. When challenged on this, he replied, why is it so hard to believe that the model self- generated, but so easy to believe that the real thing did? 2. The simple reason ID is a bad idea is that there is neither design nor a designer evident. My response--- If there is no evidence of design, there most certainly is evidence of structure and order. From there, is it more plausible to presume the proverbial explosion in a print shop, or a printer? 3. Life seems organised in exactly the way it would seem if it happened to be organised by necessity. My response--- I lost you here. Organized by WHAT necessity? Is anything necessary? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Epistemology" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
