RE :”Boy, news of Darwin’s unscientific creation myth collapsing like a house of cards

You mean like Noah's Arc collapsed when Noah tried putting the first ‘kind’ on it?

Classic Gish creationism says that ‘killing evolution results in the only alternative creation’. But now ID has popped up as another so called ‘alternative’ that creationists think hurts evolution, but ID says nothing positive about creation or Noahs Ark which is your real objective.

Given the agnostic nature of the ID Movement regarding the identity of the Designer, is it a friend or foe to Bible-believing Christians? When used as a wedge to chip away at the foundations of evolution and naturalism, the ID Movement’s distinction from conventional religion can undoubtedly be an asset, allowing an alternative voice to be heard where it is otherwise censored or dismissed. However, that dichotomy should raise flags when the ID Movement is promoted within the church and religious institutions where censorship is not an issue, particularly when used as a substitute for teaching the biblical creation model. All reasoning, scientific or otherwise, pertaining to origins is ultimately based on religious and philosophical presuppositions. Believers should admit theirs, and use the Bible as an asset to unashamedly define their way of thinking, rather than treating it as a liability that could potentially compromise their intellectual regard. That is what a biblical worldview is all about.

I’m still waiting for the creationists to address any of Darwin’s questions.

They’re too busy making money.
