Hi Daniel,
So you decided to brave the lion's den.
| Quote | | I myself am no scientist. As far as formal training, I'm more than ignorant. What little I know has been self taught. I spent a lot of time on the talk.origins newsgroup sharpening my views, but my positions are not set in stone. |
There are many posters here who are professional scientists and can answer queries or point you to references.
| Quote | | I have not yet decided what I think really happened in the "history of life" on this planet, but I am convinced of one thing: whatever happened was by design. |
Again, I am sure people can supply information and explanation on the scientific evidence. Science does not address anything other than observable, measurable phenomena, however, so the nature and rôle of a supreme being or creator is not available for scientific scrutiny. If you want to claim there is scientific evidence for a designer (intelligent or not) or that "Intelligent Design" can currently claim to be a scientific endeavour, then I expect you may find some disagreement.
| Quote | | Also, I must say that I have very little free time to devote to this discussion - probably 1 or 2 hours a week - so there might be some long delays between posts for me. |
I too have to ration my time here. I sometimes wonder if academics have too much free time judging by some people's output.
