"Bad reading that appeals to the reader's ignorance"
Another angered response by an evolutionist. Why so testy ? Guess the article hit a nerve.
What is it in the article that you think would hit a nerve?
Seeing endlessly refuted non-arguments that even most ardent creationists have given up on repeated as if they were saying something clever does tend to make me testy. Thinking that people who know nothing of biology can spot something as obvious as "the eye cannot be the product of evolution" which somehow the 99% of professional practicing biologists who spend their lives studying the subject haven't noticed is fatuous beyond belief; the most fruitloop kind of conspiracy-theory nonsense. Having Christianity and conservatism associated with militant ignorance and neo-luddism does hit a nerve, true. Note that even ID promoters such as Behe, Denton, Dembski, Meyer et al acknowledge that the evolutionary pathway for eyes is well understood.
BTW when I said that the evolution of the eye was understood decades ago I was wrong. I forgot that Darwin himself outlined the necessary intermediate stages from no eye at all to modern vertebrate eye and pointed out modern creatures and fossils that had/have those intermediates. So anyone promoting that "eye is too complex to have evolved" argument without recognising that it has already been refuted is 150 years out of date, not mere decades.
