If that made you grimace, you shouldn't read Darrell Falk's response (Part I, Part II). Todd Wodd at least is honest and able of making fun of himself ("Dogmatically committed to an untenable scientific position? I am dubious such a creature would exist (present company excepted, of course)."
He states openly that he is a creationist not because he finds the evidence for evolution lacking but because his belief demands it in his opinion.
Dembski's post is a load of BS but at least it is clear what he means.
After finishing Falk's piece I was wondering what kind of stuff he's smoking. He seems to believe in intelligent falling:
| Quote | | But what are the natural laws? Are not the the laws of nature simply a description of God’s ongoing and non-ceasing activity in the universe? The Law of Gravity, for example, is not something that God set up in the beginning, thereafter recusing himself from further involvement and exiting from the scene. Instead, the Law of Gravity works as it does because of the ongoing activity of God’s Spirit in the universe. So consistent is that activity that it can be described mathematically through scientific analysis. If God ceased to be active, however, then not only would the matter of this universe no longer function in a way which enables a mathematical description of gravity, matter itself would cease to exist. |
That is not much better than this:
| Quote | But if Darwin was wrong, that beardy fella on a cloud must have made us, right? Well, no.
The latest science suggests we are intelligently designed - not by some sentient humanistic being from on high - moreover a higher, energetic, source intelligence. Einstein's Unified Field theory equation was completed in 2007. The breakthrough proves everything: matter (which derives from energy, which is what we're made from) all natural laws and processes link to one underlying, unifying consciousness - aka, God, Source, Allah, Yaweh - pick your favourite. |
