Some of my issues with "intelligent design."

First of all, you can't reproduce large-scale evolution in a lab because it would require a lab with extremely varrying environmental factors all of which we can understand and take into consideration regarding their effects (which is damn-near impossible), several different species, and a few hundred million years to carry out the experiment. So no, it can't be reproduced in a lab.
Here's one interesting site regarding evolution on a larger scale. You may want to actually research the potential arguments before dismissing them as non-existent.

And once again, I'm not stating evolution as an infallable fact, I'm stating that it obviously has some degree of influence on the course of speciation, how much influence remains in question.
Still, creationist's greatest weapon is their distortion of all theory, law, and ideas; that being, trying to place scientists and creationists on equal grounds by perpetuating the false notion that any and every point of view is just "faith", that every idea and standpoint is all just a matter of faith and therefor it all is equally valid. I've yet to hear a real, solid creationist argument based on real research, sound logic, and reasonable interpretation of empiricle evidence. If anybody can prove to me, or at least present reasonable and existent evidence that god exists, I'll not only believe in your god, I just might dance a jig with joy.mrdevious Reviewed by mrdevious on . Some of my issues with "intelligent design." I don't mean this as an attack on anybody for holding such beliefs, but I do bleieve it's essential to give serious and logical consideration to both sides of such a claim. It's nobody's "fault" for holding beliefs for or against god, but merely their belief that their reasoning is sound, is what's faulty. That being said... INTELLIGENT DESIGN: Before considering intelligent design, also consider this; does it not seem a bit suspicious to you that that we carry SO many behavioral Rating: 5
