"On some things there is not a debate." He then hung up.
by Denyse O'Leary
ARN correspondent
Going through Suzan Mazur’s Altenberg 16, after reading Bill Dembski’s post yesterday on genome mapper Craig Venter “coming out†as a disbeliever in the sacred teaching of common descent - in the very presence of Darwin’s high priest Dawkins* - I couldn’t help recalling New Zealand journalist Suzan Mazur's effort to get a reaction from National Center for Science Education (the Darwin in the schools lobby), and its outcome:
... when I called Kevin Padian, president of NCSE's board of directors and a witness at the 2005 Kitzmiller v. Dover trial on intelligent design, to ask him about the evolution debate among scientists - he said, "On some things there is not a debate." He then hung up.I wonder how long Darwinists can just keep hanging up on all the problems. My best guess is, as long as key politicians stump for them, judges decide for them, and the public decides that "scientists" (as in Kevin Padian??) must know better than the rest of us.- Suzan Mazur, The Altenberg 16: An Expose of the Evolution Industry, North Atlantic Books, 2010, p. 29, here.
*Dawkins claimed to have sworn off Darwinism as a religion in 2008, but then, the cat claimed to have sworn off cream that year too, and he is still one fat cat.

- Telic Thoughts
We are a group of individuals, coming from diverse backgrounds and not speaking for any organization, who have found common ground around teleological concepts, including intelligent design. We think these concepts have real potential to generate insights about our reality that are being drowned out by political advocacy from both sides. We hope this blog will provide a small voice that helps rectify this situation.
