This blog used to be about politics. Not so much anymore as I have worked through my fascination with that subject. It now seems appropriate that with a new president and the end of the Bush nightmare that I move on to new subjects that are more in line with my current interests. I may still occasionally express an opinion about political matters but for the most part I will be commenting on music, photography and personal observations. Thank you for reading.

Just Check the ID:

"The idea, so contentious in other contexts, actually rings a loud bell in sports. Athletes often talk of feeling an absolute fulfillment of purpose, of something powerful moving through them or in them that is not just the result of training. Jeffrey M. Schwartz, a neuroscientist and research professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine, is a believer in ID, or as he prefers to call it, 'intrinsic intelligence.' Schwartz wants to launch a study of NASCAR drivers, to better understand their extraordinary focus. He finds Darwinism, as it applies to a high-performance athlete such as Tony Stewart, to be problematic. To claim that Stewart's mental state as he handles a high-speed car 'is a result of nothing more than random processes coming together in a machine-like way is not a coherent explanation,' Schwartz said."


The uncanny ability to turn left at high speeds for hours on end proves the intelligence of human design?

Sure, why not? If we're going to throw out quality control, why not go all the way? Never mind all the hard work and engineering that goes into building a car, planning a race strategy, training a pit crew and tweaking an engine.
