Oh yeah, that rings so many bells! Indeed I've seen it happen to my formerly "recalcitrant" mind so many times.

dimasook, I hope you count this as an asset of yours. I do! The world could do with a wider distribution of this sort of flexibility…

I wouldn't be so pessimistic. Anyone who makes the mistake of listening to what anyone else thinks will have their mind changed, we rarely recognize it at the time.

Good point. There is usually a lag.

Remember, it's "bunny" and not "rabbit."

Pull it off, report back here, and I'll send ya a copy of the DM.

You now have to work the word 'bunny' into your upcoming debate with Michael Ruse.

OK — you're on.

I'm still baffled at myself because when I first came to the blog, I was among those who found the ID movement as a supernatural creationism. Not anymore.

Thanks for sharing that. Out there in the so-called "˜real world,' ID is supposed to be supernatural creationism. But this is really the Mass Media version of reality that is driven by the type of sensationalism that sells newspapers and magazines. It's a world of cartoons. Out here in the cracks of reality, we know better, simply because we follow what is actually being claimed or proposed. Things are a little more interesting and stimulating than the mass media culture can ever imagine.

BTW, one of the neatest things about ID is that this little cyber-community is so tremendously diverse. Pay close attention and you'll find people from all ends of the political religious, and metaphysical spectrum. While few minds are ever changed, our realization (and even understanding) of different viewpoints is enhanced.

OK, here's the challenge. You now have to work the word 'bunny' into your upcoming debate with Michael Ruse.

And we expect a report.

Good points all.

But you'd better say something about all those rabbits who keep you honest and independent, or the Bunny Squad is going to come knocking at your office door.

And right behind them, a pair of roosters. You know the ones…
