Re: You overrate the role of physics
As a physicist, I must take exception with the statement
"Life is not just biological.. It is also physical and chemical",
Physics and chemistry are the underpinnings of Biology. Biology is that subset of physics and chemistry which invovles carbon based molecules.

Comment on first message
Hi Parsimonium
I should have looked at this earlier. Your message comes close to identifying the problem with ID, but it doesn't explictly address the evolutionary "design process". As I have written elsewhere, there is no question that there is a "design process" driving evolution, but the evolutionary design process is one of trial and error which proceeds through genetic mutations to ever improving "trial" organisms, some of whom survive and some whom don't (the Errors). All this proceeds without any guidance from a supernatural ID.
