Curiously I think whenever design is being discussed we need to look at both sides of the controversy ... Silly Design Institute: Let's discuss BOTH sides of the Design Controversy...: quote: And it occurs to me that the variety and intermingling of the various ways of sexual reproduction would have a high SI value (SI - the Silliness Index - for comparing the relative silliness of different features, the higher the SI the higher the probability of Silly Design). Message 23 touches briefly on some aspects of this, but it needs to be studied in great detail to fully comprehend the depth of silliness involved. Enjoy Edited by RAZD, : .

Conversely, how can you support a "design objective" if you don't know what the arrangement is for? This is the issue behind Silly Design Institute: Let's discuss BOTH sides of the Design Controversy... and Is ID properly pursued?. In the latter I note: quote: An open-minded skeptic will consider the possibility of a designer, and be skeptical that it exists due to lack of objective empirical evidence. In essence will make no decision yay or nay until there is evidence one way or the other. The "design" could be as simple as creation of the universe with all the physics etc laws so that life would form and evolve with no other effort required, or as complex as micromanaging every little puff of wind, every little movement of atoms, obsessively directing everything. Personally I favor the former as the latter seems inept, error prone, myopic and fumbling, focusing on one problem at a time regardless of consequences that then have to be taken care of in unending ineptitude. Curiously, it seems religions tend to favor the latter.

But we do. Things like the extreme age of the earth being necessarily way older than all YEC pipe dreams. The evidence is everywhere, from radiometric age, to tree rings, to relative age of sedimentary layering, to astronomical changes of the moon affecting the earth's rate of spin over time, recorded in coral heads confirming extreme old age. You yourself cannot begin explain the simplest data of tree rings, you've said so. Age Correlations and An Old Earth, Version 2 No 1 has defeated every YEC attempt to show alternative explanations, because they cannot explain the correlations -- why different systems give the same ages. Why different labs can reproduce the same results over and over and over. (a wink at the topic? Such correlations between different methods can only occur through astronomical blind chance larger than any ID argument, the action of a jester god who is out to fool you, or reality. I'll take reality. But gosh, have you creationists ever dragged THIS thread way off topic with your song and dance. Typical.

There, fixed it for you.
Except they are corroborated every time they agree from one method to the other, every time they correlate.
And we HAVE a lot more that that, we get thousands of readings, and we get readings from multiple labs with different methods from the same sample and surprise: they agree. You have absolutely no idea how much work is done on dating methods to calibrate and correlate dates. You only say this out of desperate blind ignorance, in spite of being unable to handle the evidence on Age Correlations and An Old Earth, Version 2 No 1 And if you continue to disagree then start at Message 2 and try to prove them wrong. You won't last. CRR just gave up on doing that after only 3 posts ... will you be the next creationist to run away from reality? Note you should answer on that thread rather than here, as the age dating is not this thread topic.
There, fixed that for you.
Except that they say absolutely nothing about the dating methods. This is a stretch even for you Faith.
And again, the topic is the variety and evolution of reproduction methods over time so this is off topic as well as foolish.

Curiously I have always thought it makes more sense to think of the designer as an artist not as an engineer. by our ability to understand Rebel☮American☆Zen☯Deist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share. • • • Join the effort to solve medical problems, AIDS/HIV, Cancer and more with Team EvC!
