In the beginning: Two views
Nancy Haught of the Oregonian reports that two separate panel discussions will take place on November 12th and 13th at the University of Portland.
John F. Haught, whose books include "God After Darwin: A Theology of Evolution", and Michael J. Behe, who wrote "Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution", will discuss the theories in two separate lectures.
Haught says, "It is not the job of science to talk about ultimate explanations. That is why I object to intelligent design being taught as a science."
I wonder why it's okay to teach Darwinism in science class, since it is an ultimate explanation (from an atheistic standpoint). Darwinism is science as a philosophy, not science as a methodology.
ID-ing intelligent design
Errol Castens of the University of Mississippi Daily Journal, writes a favorable piece on the ID-Darwinism controversy. Part of the problem ID is having in the current debate is the science vs religion mantra of Darwinists. Castens is the religion editor of the paper, by the way.
The Case of Behe vs. Darwin
Josh Getlin, staff writer for the LA Times, reports on Michael Behe and the Dover trial.
Time and time again we encounter the "genetic fallacy" used by the other side. Just because people who believe in the God of the Bible think ID points to the God of the Bible, doesn't mean ID isn't scientific in every respect. All you Darwinists, please respond to the scientific idea, not the people of faith who back it. It's science vs science not science vs religion.
Closing Arguments Made in Trial on Intelligent Design
From Laurie Goldstein of the New York Times, a piece which leans a bit to the Darwinism side.
ID pokes holes in evolution
Russ Pulliam, associate editor for the Indianapolis Star, writes a very balanced opinion piece on ID and Darwinism.

- 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.
