What a load of crap. Science routinely checks for “intelligent design.” When forensic scientists test for evidence of a murder, they are testing for the “intelligent design” of a death — as opposed to an accidental cause.
Granted, the test for ID of life is more complicated, but it is based on the same basic principles.
By the way, the notion that the first living cell came to be by random chance cannot be contradicted by any scientific test. Think about it. How could any test possibly prove that the first living cell could NOT have fallen into place by random chance? It would be like proving that random winds never wrote the entire Gettysburg Address on the sands of the Saraha desert. Do you agree then that abiogenesis is unscientific?
Yeah, that’s what I thought.
Sorry, Intelligent Homicide implies that people did something, not that something did something. People you can examine and cross examine, an invisible something you cannot. This is why God cannot be subpoenaed to testify in court, because He is not in the habit of showing up.
Scientists disallow what cannot be examined. Even though invisible, gravity is consistent. God is not. There is no mathematical formula for God. No inclusion of God as a variable. Thus, no exclusion of God as a variable. Therefore, God is ignored. This is not disrespectful of God, in fact, it is more respectful of God as a singularity.
This is why God does not have a name. Or a height, weight, hair color, eye color, looks like a giraffe and an oyster. Unless you can compare God with something else, anything else, God cannot fit into any formula.
So the best respect for Intelligent Design is to ignore it.
