That crazy W


My wife sent me a link to this article on World Net Daily. Apparently W is at it again, using his MANDATE FROM GOD to encourage lawmakers to bring the so-called "theory" of "INTELLIGENT DESIGN" into the science classes of American schools.

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

Is this to make the dogmatists seem like legitimate scientists? I wonder if young students would be able to discern the difference between a scientific theory and a religious dogma? Maybe it would be a good thing?

Probably not.

Appealing to a supernatural cause for the effect: complexity of life is just that -- an appeal!

There are many parts of life that we don't understand. There are many parts of life that we may never understand. Does that legitimately justify us to conclude that THERE MUST BE SOMETHING HIGHER MAKING THIS COMPLEXITY!!!! ???



I don't think so.

What do you think?
