Intelligent Design


That may be some information to mine for a molecular biologist.  Also, I have read that sunlight deficiency can cause a deformity much like the form and shape of a particular primate skull.  I don't remember which one.  I have not studied much about human/primate evolution.

I believe you beej are a Creationist.  I'm not saying that there is something wrong with it as you are entitled to your beliefs.  You may wish to keep in mind that the Bible was written in a prescientific age.  They may have thought much differently from us.  Remember what I posted before.  The terms "create" and "make" denote two different processes.  The Hebrew word "vayivra - to make", was used many times in the book of Genesis.

Intelligent design is an exercise of brain power and study.  It is to be distinguished from Creationism in the following way.

William Dembski, a modern expert on ID, defines intelligent design as “the science that studies signs of intelligence.” (The Design Revolution, page 33) Basically, intelligent design centers on finding, studying, and cataloguing identifiable results of intelligence. When intelligent design advocates find a sign of intelligence, they do it simply by infering from the scientific evidence. As Michael Behe put it in his book, Darwin’s Blackbox: “The conclusion of intelligent design flows naturally from the data itself – not from sacred books or sectarian beliefs.” (page 193) Note that people who study the signs of an intelligence may also hold beliefs about who the intelligence is. These beliefs, however, cannot be proven by, and thus are not part of, the science of intelligent design.
