As far as I know Duane ID simply says a god, superman, did something.
What we have little to no idea, but what ever it was as compaired
to humans it must be inteligent.

So define inteligent? How do we know this universe is a smart idea?
We have all bio life feeding on its self--that does not sound very
smart to me. You mean there is no better way for life to exist?

The praying mantise female eats her mate after breeding--that is a
smart thing to do? Or is it only one of many systems that works? So
if a system works it is called inteligent? OK, I have a system to build
a house but it is flawed, when fill with people it falls down and kills
many--is that smart?

I have NO ideas how ID can be suported. NONE. It does not answer
the question of what god did what. It resolves no myth into fact,
and does not define what inteligence is. It is just an
other hair brain and emotional jerking off idea that solves nothing.

How do you use ID in a lab? Where is the aplication of ID in a
science study?

How is our knowledge increased? Saying "god did it" (fill in your own
one in a zillion ideas of what a god is) advance our understanding.

I mix baking soda with viniger and get a type of foam--I say
god did it or ID--
how does that tell me what the chemical reaction was? Or do I say
"it is magic" and the smarts of a god and walk away.

Does ID resolve the comflicts between the Christians and Muselums?
no not at all. What is the point of ID?

Where is the exclustivity that is needed in the defeintion of ID?
ID does not even tell you what god to burn incence to. Does any one
pray to ID or give 10% of all thier earning to? "The holy church of ID",
now that could be a new fad.

How do we even know there is only "one" ID, perhaps many?
How do we know? Turn to your holy book of myths I supose.

Many ideas can not stand alone. Would we have the understanding
of what "stop" is if we did not understand what "go" is.
How about "up" from "down". So if there is an inteligent being
that can create a universe is there a very stupid being that creates
a very bad universe? How would we know? Maybe this is the stupid
universe from a very stupid god of some kind. Is it smart to
creat tape worms that kills our children?

ID is nothing but old myth. So much trash from the dark ages. It
does not answer questions and we have no method to test it out.
So it is not even science and deserves to be kicked out of
our schools. Schools are for learning not indoctrinating.

Sorry about my spelling, my computer does not have a spell
check, I would use it out of respect to the people on this board.
Personaly having people born that can not spell is not a very smart
thing to do... So much for ID.
