Re: intellectual pussy
Intellectual pussy?
Pussy?
I like what rapper Ice T says about that word:
"Power it starts with P like pussy"

Re: intellectual pussy
I must admit to really hating that word when I was younger, as it was always used in a derogatory way, usually by boys wanting to denegrate other boys.
Now I know it doesn't have to be used that way.
Although I wouldn't really want to use it for Salty.
Let's not denigrate pusseys, OK?

Re: Wow...he found the thread!
So, Salty, maybe you could answer a question that nobody has ever been able to to date:
How do you tell the difference between a system which has been intelligently designed and a natural one which we don't understand yet, or do not have the intellectual power to ever understand?
I mean, in science (if you want to do science), you must in principal work within the idea that there is potentially alwayssomething we haven't thought of. That's why and how science is able to adapt and change when new information comes in, right?
So, by what system or method do you tell the designed from the simply unknown?

Re: salty throws in the towel?
quote:
There is no need to provide evidence for a designer as it is manifest everywhere.
Um, wouldn't the "manifestation" of design be, um, evidence?
So, how do we tell the difference between an ID system and a natural one that we don't currently understand or that we do not have the intelligence to understand?
