Spam emails are depressing. To think that I am nothing more than a potential idiot to exploit. The way Darwinian evolution is usually presented is that the evidence is overwhelming, and there is no controversy about it," said Jonathan Wells, a senior fellow at the Seattle-based Discovery Institute, which supports intelligent design research. "That's clearly not the case." People disappoint me. Right, as if we can redact our support for a theory that has withstood years of scrutiny so that we can introduce a PR-created theory that has little to no scientific evidence to suport it? (sigh) Is it any wonder I'm a cynic? It works so well. There is no controversy amongst REAL scientists about the basic tenents of evolution. Their whole argument boils down to "we don't understand it, so it must be divine design?" In case you don't see the problem, until we discovered the mechanisms for our current understanding of biology everything was incomprehensible. We will eventually discover more answers to the questions we currently have. That's how REAL science works -- you ask questions then you look for the answer, you DO NOT throw up your hands and proclaim the unanswered questions to be "unknowable". That's just dumb. Proponents of ID want to make future generations dumber. As if we don't already treat education as an evil that we have to tolerate? Can we just say it? We don't care about education here in the U.S. because it would cause too much political strife? We would rather that people be dumb than educated. Its just easier that way. Yeah, I'm down on people right now. Why do I have to be nice? |
