Thank You was: Defending Intelligent Design



Thank You Everyone,

It was an interesting exercise but I doubt much
more would be accomplished by continuing it.

Some lessons I learned:

1. It appears, for the moment, that the Pro IDers are
in hiding/mourning as far as this newsgroup is concerned.

2. There is some weakness in the area of scientific bias,
but it's not very exploitable.
- ID has to claim it is supernatural (bad legal move)
- String Theory is getting special treatment
- Evolution is not getting special treatment

3. Claiming the supernatural high ground is getting harder
with recent events...
- Black Holes leak information now
- The Universe may be timeless again

4. Claiming the supernatural for ID results in defining all
intelligence as supernatural.

5. Without the supernatural, the primary thing ID has going
for it is nit-picking evolution.

Nothing profound, just observations. We can now go back to
our regularly scheduled critique of the Dover Trial.

Provoking Thought
