Timaeus, one of UD's more articulate ID advocates: Quote | Regarding the possible co-operation between Biologos and ID, I think that in the final analysis it boils down to this: if Biologos is intellectually committed not only to “evolution” but to the specifically neo-Darwinian model of evolution, or to any model of evolution which depends fundamentally on chance to generate novel forms, then there is no hope of any co-operation between the two. ID’s whole raison d’etre is to show the massive implausibility of an evolutionary process that proceeds in this way. ID could not surrender its Darwin-skepticism without ceasing to be itself. |
IOW, ID makes no positive assertions, and it is not really its mission to do so.
Don't you get banned over there for saying that?
