How Design Beat Darwin

[Split Rock]

These "articles" are actually kind of pathetic. Self-congratulatory fantasizing about a future where the "Dogmatic Darwinists" are defeated by the Heroes of Intelligent Design seems to be the best that IDers can come up with.

Didn't Prince write a song about this?:


I was prayin’ when I wrote this, forgive me for being YEC
But when I woke up this mornin’, I knew that I believed in ID

It wasn’t in a journal, it wasn’t even reviewed by peers
But it did more than evolution to assuage my childish fears

Cuz they say 2025, oops Darwin’s out of time
So we’re gonna move science back to the year b.c. ninety-nine.

This reminds me of a song they have at request-a-song.com. I think it's kind of relevant. It's free if anyone wants to download it.


A Prayer For Lost Information

Say a prayer for all the lost information.
Fight the growing entropy.
We're on the lookout for divine confirmation;
But you know that things aren't always what they seem.

If you believe in ancient wisdom,
Then gather up the knowledge still around.
When you receive it, check the checksum;
Make sure it's what they really handed down.

Say a prayer for all the lost information.
Face the growing apathy.
An endless war rages against degradation
As distant as the local library.

If you believe in ancient wisdom,
Accumulate the knowledge that you've found.
When you receive it, check the checksum;
Make sure it's what they really handed down.

This is already long overdue. People will always find a way of denying their Creator (and Moral Lawgiver) but the day will come when they stop looking to Darwin for false comfort.

I got to say that this is quite hilarious. How does Darwin give false comfort? What is comfortable about evolution? I would think that believing that there is a big friendly loving all powerful being up in the sky that created us all and is looking after us constantly and wants us to live forever in a perfect little paradise up in the clouds, and that we are his only and most important creations is by far more wishful thinking or seeking out false comfort when compared to the theory of evolution.

I myself am convinced that the theory of evolution, especially the extent to which it's been applied, will be one of the great jokes in the history books of the future. Posterity will marvel that so very flimsy and dubious an hypothesis could be accepted with the incredible credulity that it has. ~ Malcolm Muggeridge

Best forum i have read all day!!! Just wait, we think we are smart, but God is smart, we are merely nothing compared to Him, face it guys, we are all Dumb!!!

Thanks for the look at 2025. Here's a look at 2016. It looks like before they topple "Darwinism", the ID folks will start with materialistic Daltonism, the "atheistic core of chemistry and physics".

This is just priceless. Is anyone going to tell him?
