What's the Topic?
Please see my comments in Marc9000's Message 260. In his next message he gave no indication of paying any heed to the moderator request in that message.
People, the question is whether ID follows the scientific method. Primarily because of Dawn's inability to address the topic of his own thread I made a very pointed request that an example of ID following the scientific method be presented so that it can be discussed. In Message 248 I requested responses to this list of requested information composed by Bluejay:
  • An example of a researcher making observations of the natural world.
  • An example of a researcher formulating an ID hypothesis based on those observations.
  • An example of a researcher experimenting to test that ID hypothesis.
  • An example of a researcher forming an ID theory based on the results of the experiment.
No responses to this have been posted yet. Anything else from those taking the affirmative that ID follows the scientific method is off-topic. In my judgement, discussion of the topic has not really begun yet, and I don't think it can begin until there's a concrete example of ID research to discuss. To this point this thread is just a series of "Does to's" and "Does not's".
