| Rath said: I think Darwin was wrong on many counts, his theory of evolution was incomplete and is now outdated. However I have huge respect for him because he is essentially the father of evolution, he started the idea that has lead to modern biology being what it is. @JaggedSac, there are better resources out there for ID than Expelled. Expelled was a ridiculously bad with its journalistic integrity. The creators lied to interviewees, hugely misquoted and misrepresented things and basically made a mockery of the entire thing. Also I don't understand how ID can not be seen as creationism. ID never attempts to explain the 'Who created the creator' problem, creationism answers this by saying 'nobody', evolution answers it by saying 'what creator?' but ID leaves it entirely blank. |
There are many possible whos. Creatures that came before us, not originating from this planer, being the main one. Could you provide some concrete details on the things you say Expelled did? Stein was not really for or against either side, so why would they provide a biased view? He was just saying that people who have valid scientific ideals about ID should not be shunned, mocked, and reprimanded by the scientific community. Until the day that someone comes out with a valid and provable scientific explanation on how life originated on our planet, ID should be given due process. I am in no way a believer in god, but that in no way means I do not have ideas on how Intelligent Design can be valid.
And yes, even if there were aliens that created us, they would have to have started somewhere. But, if you concede that point, it makes the research of Intelligent Design valid. Because knowing that information would be jsut as big, if not bigger than the idea that WE started from nothing.
