Behe's Critics Fail to Understand Analogies and Design Detection
Whenever biochemist Michael Behe's argument for design from "irreducibly complex" molecular machines appears, there is a Darwinist waiting in the wings with a devastating critique (or so he thinks).
Texas Science Standards Debate Is About Darwinian Evolution...not Intelligent Design
In ENV...science standards review processes always seem to send Darwinists into a misinformation flurry. The current review of Texas' standards is no exception. Josh Rosenau has a post up recently attacking Casey Luskin that has a number of errors. Josh is in elite company, as these are the very same errors that spread like the flu through the main stream media last spring. At that time we reported how the New York Times and Washington Post, among others, were misreporting the facts about "strengths and weaknesses" language in the Texas science standards.
Is Richard Dawkins still evolving?
In The Spectator (UK), Melanie Phillips reports on the latest Dawkins-Lennox debate.
Phillips attended the debate between Richard Dawkins and John Lennox at Oxford's Natural History Museum. This was the second public encounter between the two men, but it turned out to be very different from the first. Lennox is the Oxford mathematics professor whose book, God's Undertaker: Has Science Buried God? is to my mind an excoriating demolition of Dawkins's overreach from biology into religion as expressed in his book The God Delusion - all the more devastating because Lennox attacks him on the basis of science itself. In the first debate Dawkins was badly caught off-balance by Lennox's argument precisely because, possibly for the first time, he was being challenged on his own chosen scientific ground.
The latest debate, however, was different because from the off Dawkins moved it onto safer territory - and at the very beginning made a most startling admission. He said...
"A serious case could be made for a deistic God."
This was surely remarkable.

- 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.
