Considering Design and Nanotechnology

I ran across a very interesting story that dates back to 2003.  It was on a site that has a focus of advancing nanotechnology.  There is a very interesting interview with a Japanese researcher studying the bacterial flagellum.  The researcher appears to utilizing the aspect of applied science where I think ID theory fits very [...]

The Religion of Science–and the Problem of Definitions

It is a mistake to believe that a science consists in nothing but conclusively proved propositions, and it is unjust to demand that it should. It is a demand only made by those who feel a craving for authority in some form and a need to replace the religious catechism by something else, even if [...]

A Simple Perceptual Test and Intelligent Design

Atheists and purely naturalistic evolutionists accept or reject teleological principles on the basis of their worldviews.  Whereas those who view things from a Intelligent Design perspective are logically consistent with their views on teleology.  As an illustration, I’ll lay out a simple perceptual test.
The question for each picture is, “Does this appear to have been [...]

Poe’s Law and Fundamentalist Evolutionist

The Christian Scribbler has an interesting post up on Poe’s Law and Fundamentalist Evolutionists. It’s a good analysis and the videos can’t be beat.

A Naturalistic Fairy Tale–Part II

And then did gravity clump matter together.  Albeit, faster than should have been possible.  With particles flying outward at faster than the speed of light, which today is impossible, but then not so miraculous.  And then, did we notice that every galaxy is moving away from us by the redshift of light.  Originally we had [...]

A Naturalistic Fairy Tale–Part I

Once upon a time, long, long ago, before time, there was nothing.  Which as all scientists know, nothing is not really nothing.  Just a wee little empty void, but not truly empty.  The void did fluctuate before time existed.  It did it anyway…it found a way to fluctuate even though time didn’t exist.  And from [...]

Latest Podcast from Intelligent Design the Future

Have a listen to Stephen Meyers’ opening remarks in a debate on the scientific evidence for intelligent design.  He makes some good arguments based on nanomachinery and information theory.

On Labels

Many people seem to think that just by applying a label to something, it is true and factual.  But the reality is, all you have done is apply a mental representation and your own bias.  Take for example a recent discussion regarding the ‘real-world’ benefits of evolution to society.
Similar to genetic algorithms, engineers can use [...]

Ahhhh…to be young and naive again…

My major professor had a reputation in graduate school for being unable to give positive feedback.  When he gave people feedback about his observation of how they worked with patients, he universally made some comment about the personality of the psychologist-to-be.  I remember one of my fellow graduate students who was told by this professor [...]
