Mr Spinkles,
It's impossible to demonstrate what Darwinian processes 'cannot' do, so it's not surprising that Behe doesn't demonstrate what Darwinian processes 'cannot' do. :)
Darwinian processes don't merely have to be capable of producing the FCTs, they have to be capable of...
Mr. Sprinkles,
You've made a lot of great points in this thread and I've just gotten to turning my forum brain back on the past few days after a nice break playing video games. I really enjoyed reading your post and I will really enjoy replying to it, if God permits, within a week...
IT,
Do you find success convincing people who know the Bible? I find your views interesting but impossible to accept because they don't agree with the Bible. It's definitely a gentler belief system than Islam, I'll give you that.
Looking forward,

Auto,
I get the sense that we're not going to agree and with your closing remark I can't help but think the time spent on exchanges might be better spent reading. My opinions on capitalism are being changed as I write. I find this very interesting: Darwin and Darwinism: The (Alleged) Social...
Nepenthe,
Consensus is the lowest level of evidence. :) Lots of people disagreed with Darwin. Lots of people disagreed with Gould. Lots of people disagree with Behe!
Plus, I think you're not giving Behe a fair shake when you say he doesn't state what is a case of something not designed. He does...
Auto,
I've read Edge of Evolution (which goes into detail exploring what Darwinian processes can't do, trying to find the 'edge') and I've read this paper. There must be some difference between what we've read because I think this paper is talking about the edge of evolution. He's on a...
Hello all,
I guess we can safely say that those who disagree with Behe's Intelligent Design also think that the paper he wrote is ambiguous and poor in quality?
I'm glad we also agree that the peer review process has a place, but also has limitations(like Darwinian Evolution?)...
IT,
The events in revelation (the breaking of the seal) include every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea and all that is in them singing praises to the Lamb. (Rev 5:13) The Lamb goes on to open the seals of judgement including a judgment with a massive...
Hello all,
I'm kind of surprised that no one has recognized that a review of what evolution is capable of sets the backdrop for saying what it is not capable of. Since Intelligent Design is often seen as an inference to the best explanation (and a Designer is seen as being a better inference...
IT,
You are using the word mystery differently than the Apostles did. To them the mystery was there, it was hidden in plain sight. It wasn't sealed up, but was going into all the world but only those God desired would receive the message.
When you refer to Revelation surely you must...
JM,
Do you think your credibility suffers when you make sweeping statements about a belief system whose book(not very long, might I add) you haven't taken the pains to read?
Next time I'll remember that we're talking about various critics interpretation of the Bible instead of...
JM,
Again I think it would be wise to reserve such critical words until you've actually read the book, wouldn't you?
As for Jesus, he doesn't have to have 'the correct interpretation' to have a valid interpretation and see it fulfilled in his own life giving him a reason to believe he is...
JM,
I forgot, the demonstration that God's greatness did not depend on our desire or effort was to show that only God deserves the glory (the honor, the praise). He created the world for His pleasure, and what pleases Him most is getting all the credit.
Looking forward,
QM
