Skeptic 2

 (cont'd from yesterday's post)

"Intelligent Design" is a view that certain features of the universe and life are best explained by a designing intelligence rather than by an undirected, unguided process like natural selection. Books, articles and documentaries by scientists who are not committed to materialism explain the science of these features

Christians fit naturally into this paradigm because we believe in the God of the Bible. But the Bible is not the foundation of ID. Empirical scientific evidence is its foundation. 

If you are committed to the view that God doesn't exist or that he didn't create life, you must mentally fight the ubiquitous appearance of design in living systems. As Francis Crick said, "Biologists must constantly keep in mind that what they see was not designed, but rather evolved."
