Not checking your check, I think that you assume that I cut and pasted a lot of this but I did not. I gathered most of this together, while trying to research the websites that Highwaystar gave to me. He seemed to be needing a quick response so I dumped as much as I had down- More than likely the partial quote that I used was used in conjunction with the brief description I gave of Darwin’s explanation for the evolution of the human eye. I apologize if I misrepresented the intention of the author, who used it before me, with that one statement but since I included within the entirety of my comment the explanation of the Darwin’s evolutionary theory for the eye, I do not think that I too horribly represented the ideas of Darwin. I think though I am not sure (talking off the top of my head) Darwin was discussing the problems with complex organs that quote if from a section in his book. Behe later, through microbiology showed, that the eye can not be explained in step by step fashion. |
Um ...
1. You do not appear to be responding to the post you quoted.
2. I believe you are responding to this post.
3. I do not know (although I may now check out of curiosity) if you even used that Darwin quote. I was just using that as a well-known example of a misleading out-of-context quote regarding evolution. I did not mean to imply that you had made that particular out-of context quote.
I'm pretty sure that Behe has been shown to be wrong (that it can be, and has been, explained).

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
