Errors in transcription are often the cause of mutations. What was the point here? [/ QUOTE ] I don't know. I got no problem with this statement. Transcription errors occur. Mutations occur. No sweat. Can you cite any IDers who deny this?

Re: The arguement that recently convinced me of god\'s existence
That's all well and good, but it's a huge leap from believing that some powerful motive force is responsible for the order in the universe to assuming that force takes an active role or interest in the behavior of one species.

Re: Wrong!
[ QUOTE ]
As to evolution being clearly shown, I'm not arguing about other species and whether the evidence is clear or not - I'm arguing human evolution, human fossils, and the lack of intermediaries expected from a Darwinian prediction. [/ QUOTE ] When did ID become just about humans? Behe's favorite example is the flagellum of bacteria. And there are intermediaries, just not enough to convince people philosophically opposed to evolution of it's truth.

I can only say the fossil evidence I've seen purporting to show human descent from primates is less than thin.

[/ QUOTE ] Choosing to remain in a blissful state of ignorance often allows one to continue to maintain beliefs that otherwise would have to be painfully re-examined. In NR's case this wouldn't mean abandoning Christianity, but only his specific views of it.

Re: Wrong!

How much evidence have you seen? You did say you're not a scientist. [/ QUOTE ] I browse the net from time to time. Just wondering, since Darwinism is scientific, and since Darwin himself admitted the fossil record of his day was sorely lacking, has there ever been a precise model done of exactly what the missing links would look like and how many there would be? I mean, since Darwinism is scientific and scientific theories are judged by their capacity to predict.
