The Scientific Establishment Is Finally Starting To Take Intelligent Design Seriously

“Michael Behe’s book Darwin’s Black Box”

I e-mailed Professor Behe with the question, are molecular machines an organic equivalent to nanites?

He answered in the affirmative.

Dr.Chuck Missler also has a commentary of Genesis that is mostly deep science that covers the scientif proofs that disprove all theories of evolution.

The story of the Big Bang requires more faith than the story of Creation.

...zipped around on His FASTER than light spaceship for 7 days,...

Why? He's omnipresent.

There are over 6,000 genetic diseases known so far to medicine. These result in shortened lifespans, immense pain and suffering, and countless ruined lives both for the patients and their caregivers. How can this be explained by any kind of compassionate intelligent design?

Bait n switch straw Man , shame on both of you /-).

God made everything

Man chose to break everything

Two different subjects.

would it be seen to have tree rings?

I pondered this same question on a visit to the Bristle Cone Pines.

Then wondered was Adam created fully grown, or as a Zygote?

[Kevmo]

He had stuff to do, a universe to create. That was the speed He chose to operate at.

EVERYTHING that we see, hear, touch, smell, and witness, indicates that, none of it was by accident or created by chaotic theories. Even the atom and sub-atomic particles, and energy (in all forms), indicate that, there is intelligence behind it all.

If one looks out in the universe, what may seem chaotic organization, all has a design behind it.

Then, there is DNA, where no chaotic theory or accident of nature, could explain the fantastic composition that exists within. It’s unimaginable that nature b itself could create a tiny microscopic living cell with chromosomes and genes, which if allowed to mature, creates an entire human being, capable of looking back at itself and wonder about how and why.

The intelligence which created humans and all living things, and the universe to live in, has to be thousands if not millions of times more intelligent than us mere insignifacnt humans.

There is a kitchen sink in your house, and there is a toilet - intelligent design.

[ComputerGuy]

There was no Bait n switch. You brought your own straw Man.

[barney10]

If design is so “Intelligent”, why design 350, 000 different species of beetles? Wouldn’t 100, 000 be enough?

[ShadowAce]

Hes everywhere all at the same time. He's outside the universe. No traveling is required.

Quod gratis asseritur, gratis negatur. What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence....

[ckilmer]

well, if you think that the length of God’s day is the same as the length of man’s day—then yes there is a problem. However, if you think that that the length of God’s day is not the same as the length of man’s day—then there is no problem.

[PUGACHEV]

That's an interesting question, and one that has troubled believers since the beginning: why does God permit evil things to happen? Honestly, I don't have an answer, but why assume that the creator shares your definition of "compassionate", and, just as clearly, that is not the life we know. "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment", Hebrews 9:27. Dying is not compassionate, but if judgment follows, that's where justice occurs, not in this world. I suppose that in the end, it's a matter of faith.

[cuz1961]

The subject was
creation

Not
disease

Bait n switch it was.

I pointed out those are 2 different subjects that were CONflated into 1

Aka

Bait and switch

and now you add obfuscation

Double shame on you.

[Kevmo]

He chose to come down from Heaven in the form of a man during those 3 short decades. He could have chosen to zip around the universe at well past the speed of light if He wanted to, during that creative process. I present evidence that He did.

To the Lord a day
2 Peter 3:8 one day is as a thousand years with the Lord, and a thousand years as one day.

[Kevmo]

You can ask him why in a couple of days...

[nwrep]

It cannot be explained by a remote, handsoff intelligent design, but can be explained by theistic intelligent design by including the concepts of the infinite mind and free will. What seems “evil” to us (natural diseases) is part of a divine pre-ordainment.

[aquila48]

One of the best book I’ve read on the subject is Stephen Meyer’s “Signature in the Cell”.

A real tour-de-force in making the case for ID using scientific arguments and known facts and not relying on any religious arguments.

It changed my belief regarding the origin of life to where I now consider ID the most plausible explanation, while still remaining open to anything better that might come along.
