Theism isn't a requirement of ID. The movie "Prometheus" could be considered an ID movie.

Intelligen Design was meant to keep creationism in the classroom.I thought they called it that because God is intelligent and He created things (designed them)? Do they deny creation?
Meaningless words designed to keep yourself believing, for what?
These conclusions are based on careful study of biology.
Did you provide a criteria other than looks designed therefore is designed?
Intelligen Design was meant to keep creationism in the classroom.
But in so doing, they opened the door to anything being taught as the designer of the universe.
Thus it could have been Allah, Ra, or anyone else.
Creationism specifies Elohim as the creator.
I don't believe in Intelligent Design, but I do believe the universe was intelligently designed.
My main criteria is the probabilities of either occurring. At a certain point improbable becomes impossible.

Shuffle a deck of cards then calculate the probability of them appearing in the order they appeared in. Then try and talk about improbable equals impossible.
It doesn't matter anyway because improbability isn't a criteria for determining design by itself.

Showing that their beliefs have any validity at all is something that creationists fail at to this very day.
We put feet to our beliefs at the poll booth on voters' day.
You know ... when a school levy comes up?
Not from our votes though.And yet most school levy's pass.
Cute.I don't think there are very many Christians that would punish their children because of their beliefs in a prat of the Bible that has been shown to be wrong countless times.
Good for them; we vote NO and use it as a reason.I am sure that there are some that would vote "no" and use that for an excuse.
If you say so.But most of them would vote "no" regardless.

My relationship with Christ isn't based upon what happened long ago, but upon what's happening right now. So I might be convinced to become a TE. But I'm not turning aside from the Lord. Because he's not just the Lord who designed our biosphere long ago, but the Lord who's living and working right now. As Jesus once said, "He is not the God of the dead, but of the living".
That being said, that "chicken-vs-egg" issue regarding DNA repair mechanisms is multiplied by about 200 times, even for simple cells. I'm not expecting a demonstration of the naturalistic assemblage of such a thing in my lifetime.
Good.AV, I know your "type".
That's right.The reason that you vote "No" is for a reason,
That's your opinion.... but it is an extremely poor one.
About what?You know that I am right.
You've lost me now, chief.I doubt if you are even fooling yourself this time.
We call that a "sign of the times."Hundreds of millions of Christians believe in Evolution. They see no conflict.
Good.
I certainly hope so.
If it isn't clear enough, let me make it so:
If our city wants to teach evolution in school, we'll vote NO at the polls.
That's right.
A "reason" -- not an "excuse."
That's your opinion.
You want to call our reason "poor" -- go ahead.
We'll try and make your budget "poor" too.
About what?
You've lost me now, chief.
We call that a "sign of the times."
Or "the tares growing with the wheat."
Excessively "blowing up posts" is a sign that you know that you lost the debate. You and yours are a relatively minor road bump. Your numbers will continue to dwindle as they see the errors of your beliefs. The internet may be the end of creationism. Very few creationists know how to use it for debate and the few that do always lose their debates spectacularly.
