Percy on 'When is a controversy not a controversy?'

Message 124 'ID in Rhythm'
'Behe Bit It' thread
In effect this is a second to Chiroptera's nomination. We're seeing some exceptional writing from Percy on the Behe thread. It's hard to single out just one post because, like the best debates waged by RAZD, it's all of a piece. This is strong stuff, but every tag is a clean, above-the-belt hit. Read and learn, all who intend to repeat the usual urban legends they heard in Sunday School about science.
I'm enjoying the posts of other participants, too. We're seeing a slam-dunk use of source materials by Dr. A and some game retorts from ICANT in his unenviable effort to keep the pace.
Many thanks to Laurie Anderson--er, molbiogirl--for getting this one out of the gate. The thread began with her funny, revealing anecdote, and it's been all gas pedal from there.

Dang. No sooner do I sing the praises of a thread than it gets closed for 'terminal topic disintegration.'
Can I pick 'em or what?

Re: iceage in Great Debate
Seconded. I was delighted to see iceage note the progression of moral thought over the centuries. Astute observation.
Anyone endeavouring to follow Christ's teachings has to start with "Love your enemy" and go from there. To start with "the Bible is inerrant" and rationalize from that is to follow something else. That path goes into some truly dank places.
