accidentally snipped this portion out of my last reply- i believe
you're talking semantics there. i suppose you'd make the same argument
about intelligent design as you would about lamarck- that it's
hypothesis, and not theory. but where do you draw the line?
intelligent design has been published in peer reviewed journals,
referred to as an alternative theory of evolution. it's supported by
some scientists. what needs to happen in your mind for it to make the
leap from hypothesis to theory?
