Intelligent Design: 'The Death of Science'
An article by Ker Than goes a bit deeper than most on the website LiveScience.
It looks into the twin pillars of ID, irreducible complexity and specified complexity, and says both are wanting. Than buys into the co-option argument to "refute" irreducible complexity, and "refutes" specified complexity with the "nylon problem".
Both have been ably defended as not being examples of Darwinism.
For more on the "nylon solution", click HERE,
and HERE.
Ban design theory in class, Australian scientists, etc
It is worth your while to read ID proponent Stephen Jones's replies to Austrailian science organizations against ID.
They pull out every old sound bite in the atheist/agnostic/freethinker playbook, including "dressed up in a cheap tuxedo"!
Cornell president condemns intelligent design
William Kates of the AP reports that Hunter Rawlings III, felt it imperative to use his state of the university address, usually a recitation of the school's progress over the last year, to speak out against intelligent design, which he said has put rational thought under attack.
Straight from the talking points of scientific materialists, Rawlings causes those who have delved deep into the subject to yawn, and to hope that the students at Cornell are intelligent enough to see past the rhetoric.
No Easy Victory Ensues in Legal Battle Over Evolution
Michael Powell of the Washington Post reports that there is little, if any, resemblance between the Scopes Trial and the Dover Trial.
Behe impressed! But, we knew he would.

- 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.
