“and survives only because it has a built-in facilitated variation mechanism for continually adapting to internal and external challenges and changes.”

So evolution doesn’t exist, but variation and adaption to challenge and change does.

Fascinating.

Evolution IS intelligent design.
And it is perfectly compatible with Christianity.

>>and survives only because it has a built-in facilitated variation mechanism for continually adapting to internal and external challenges and changes. The essential components are: functional molecular architecture and machinery, modular switching cascades that control the machinery and a signal network that coordinates everything. All three are required for survival, so they must have been present from the beginning—a conclusion that demands intelligent design.<<

No point in going further. The author acknowledges TToE and in the next breath baldly asserts that the mechanism demand an ID. This is just a rehash of the “who started it” argument and I agree that God did so.

This doesn’t say what you think it does. It doesn’t even say what the author thinks it dies.

Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty, may have found an established Clergy convenient auxiliaries.

Sort of like ACORN and Rev. Wright, and Wm. Ayers?
