I think Liberty U teaches that science supports the concept of
intelligent design.

There's no reputable science that supports that notion.


As Ben Stein, speaking on the theory of evolution, once said, "It
would be the approximate equivalent of a tornado passing over a junk
yard and leaving a fully finished 777 jetliner in an airport right
next to it."

Ben Stein knows nothing about which he speaks, and assuming this is his
quote, it makes no sense at all, and it has nothing to do with evolution,
which is a proven and provable fact.

Evolution *was* well planned, wasn't it?

Gosh, the more you read, the more you can see what a wonderful plan it
was!

I'll take you at your word, but you also attempted to go after me with
some
ideological label re the "shrine" comment. That's better left to shrill
and
timid people.

I find it odd that anyone would speak of any politician
affectionately, unless those person were immediately related. I also
think it odd for any person to idolize another person, regardless of
stature and estate, unless the other person is immediate family.


Why? What if that person helped you, your family, another relation, or just
a friend. Wouldn't you mentioned it after he or she died?

Where do you get the "idolize" part? Someone else is talking about a shrine
in the basement. I'm talking about acknowledging someone's accomplishments.

So, basically you're saying that you're unwilling to examine your deeply
held beliefs, even when presented with arguments and facts that are in
opposition?

First, you've no idea what I believe.

Second, you've presented that refutes the possibility of a plan.

I'm getting a better idea, especially if you keep claiming things that
aren't true. I never said, for example, that there's no possibility of a
"plan." I think you need to re-read both articles, especially the Occam's
razor one.

Nope, that doesn't fit the agenda...

Well good, maybe we can agree there was a great plan. Not sure what my
'claim' was, however.

Oh, please change the second sentence above to, "Second, you've
presented nothing that refutes the possibility of a plan. This
'nothing' includes the Occam's razor and evolution articles.


Clearly, you haven't read or don't understand the concept of Occam's razor.

Herring is a racist. Why would he understand concepts more abstract than
racism?

More tap dancing. There's nothing there that precludes a plan. A
pretty well thought out plan, actually.,

BTW, you really ought to acknowledge Harry's name-calling. He's pretty
