If the discussion had been focused on presenting evidence of ID or even the theory of ID then I would be more than happy to oblige.
I'd be very interested to see this... fancy starting another thread?

Curious. There is no evidence of ET life yet a scientific project is set up to search for ET life. Maybe we should ask them for evidence of ET life before they go looking for it.
What they are doing is searching for evidence. If you could propose a way of searching for evidence of an intelligent designer, I'm sure quite a few people would be interested in doing the searching...

as it is, we assume that we maybe able to pick up a radio or electromagnetic (and more recently laser) signatures that may indicate civilisation.

Re: Belligerent designs?
Sorry Ian.. I totally forgot I posted here... [/qs]I didn't start this one and if a person can't even get that simple fact straight then they are unlikely to be able to engage on the rather more subtle aspects of evidential ID[/qs]
​
I was replying to you seming willingness to provide evidence of ID...
"I would be more than happy to oblige"... thought I was taking it a little OT, so suggested you start a new thread.

More seriously, I don't hold (nor have I held here) that there is evidence to satisfy at the court of scientific method
ahhhh so now you're not "more than willing to oblige"... you should be careful about the promises you make.

Do me a favor Crevo, write, in about 5 sentences, the basis of what I have been discussing over the last fair number of posts. A hint lies in the second to last line of the last paragraph.
right I take it you're referring to...

Not least because I'm not in a postion to evaluate the evidential arguments that may have been put forth
​
right.. so again, you seem unwilling to oblige. why then did you breate the pretence that you were both willing and able?

Take a cheap shot and our intercourse is over - the intent behind your recent entry is clear and uninteresting to me. Make a fair stab and we can engage
I don't think I took a cheap shot, you said you were willing to present evidence of ID, I asked you to present that evidence, now, by your own admission, you have neither the evidence nor the ability to present it. that was the intent behind my recent entry... nothing more.
I think it is a "fair stab" for me to engage you if you claim to be able to present evidence for something like ID.
