Re: Two questions, two answers.
What would it take to convince an IDer? Nothing.
What would it take to convince an evolutionist? Science.
no no, i think that's unfair.
divine intervention, visions, or the voice of god saying something to the effect of "i used evolution, silly" might be able to convince an IDer.

Re: Two questions, two answers.
Additionally, if an evolutionist saw an angelic appearance or a distinct demonstration of a supernatural event..with a friend, perhaps to corroborate...science would be un-necessary to prove God from that point.
nah, we'd probably go about looking for the sensible naturalistic explanation for it. didn't you watch x-files? it's a mulder/scully problem.

Re: Remember Dostojewsky
What I mean to say is that some ideas are so dogmatically locked in place that even genuine divine intervention might be either dismissed as a hoax by staunch believers, or be hushed by those who benefit from the status quo.
ah yes. but that's to be expected -- they DID kill jesus the first time around too, because he said the wrong things.
