Backgrounder on the Significance of Judicial Copying
On December 12, 2006, Discovery Institute released a report which found that "90.9% (or 5,458 words) of Judge Jones' 6,004-word section on intelligent design as science was taken virtually verbatim from the ACLU's proposed 'Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law'." Since that time, Discovery Institute has received questions from various media sources and the public. The backgrounder on the report will help answer some common questions, and is avaialble by clicking the link above...
Smithsonian Scientist Was Demoted for Views Critical of Darwinian Evolution
The House Government Reform Subcommittee on Criminal Justice, Drug Policy, and Human Resources has issued its official report on the investigation into the harassment and discrimination against biologist Dr. Richard Sternberg. The congressional report bluntly states: The staff investigation has uncovered compelling evidence that Dr. Sternberg’s civil and constitutional rights were violated by Smithsonian officials.
One Smithsonian scientist said that having Sternberg working in the same room with other researchers would create an impossible work environment for the other researchers. Where was the moral outrage from the Progressives at this blatant bigotry?

The problem with Dawkins' anti-God crusade
Vasantha Raja, in the Asian Tribune, reports that Dawkins' anti-God offensive seems to include at least two mutually exclusive targets: One - to ridicule the biblical interpretation of God and Creation; two – to undermine the Intelligent Design hypothesis, whose appeal is gathering momentum among scientific/philosophical circles at present.
Raja is unconvinced by Dawkins' arguments, claiming they fail to refute the powerful insights ID theorists continue to develop, and ID theories will eventually prove to be positively fruitful for the scientific method itself.

- 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.
