Some New Voices
by MikeGeneSteve pointed out where Matt Donnelly says , "There is a sense within the science-and-religion community that the debate over intelligent design has run out of gas. This isn't necessarily because of a lack of interesting topics that could be discussed, but because the usual suspects on all sides of the debate have begun to get noticeably repetitive."
Maybe we need some fresh perspective from some new voices. So here are some tantalizing excerpts from a sampling of various ID critics.
Intelligent Design is the new thing in the Conservative Christian Right I'm A Big Dumb Jackass movement. What the Hell is I.D, you ask? Simply put, it's bible-thumping ask-nothing-read-the-Bible Christian Creationism under a new guise trying to call itself "science".
Intelligent Design is synonmous to Stupid
Intelligent design asserts that there is so much order in the world, a fact that we are unable to explain, that there must have been an intelligent creator who put all this order in the world. The problem with this position is that it does something science never aims to do: it adopts a position with no empirical consequences and leaves us with more questions that cannot in principle be answered.
Intelligent Design
Even their sacred bacterial flagellum didn't just happen. They seem stumped that a cell could be such an efficient little machine able to whip around with it's tail…I'm thinking of something that swims in a pearl jam like substance–right! the sperm cell; it's a single celled little bastard with a tail too. Why can't the bible thumpers just accept that science contradicts the living hell out their beliefs…
Intelligent Design is for pussies

HEY! I was gonna say that Donald!!! LOL these don't even have a new spin. Hmmm, is it a bad sign to start arguing about how new or old the arguments are?
