re: #66 Sharmuta

Except you know better than to call that intelligent design. You know that intelligent design is anti-science, wrapped in a label to make you think it’s compatible with science when it isn’t. You know that what you subscribe to is Theistic evolution and not intelligent design.

Something Equable needs to come to understand.

You’re correct.
And of course, the reason I know that is because I’ve hung around here a bit.

I believe that when “polls” are done, there are many folks who think like I do and are sucked into a particular answer because they misunderstand how the terms “intelligent design” and “creationism” are being used by the supports of the DI type of stupidity.

Well … maybe I should say I HOPE there are many folks like that.

It’s one reason why it’s important, imo, to bring the light of day to the Discovery Institute and what they are trying to do.

I had a conversation with the Roi about this once. Now, the Roi’s job, basically, is chemical engineering. He has the education for it, and the training. So he understands science way better than I do. But he did not understand how these terms, “creationism” and “intelligent design”, are being used to sucker people into learning about something other than evolution.
