Not sure why everyone has such trouble skipping the thread if they don't like the topic...Wouldn't that be the rational, logical thing to do?

Academics don't work out very well unless there are critics pointing out flaws.

It's a science, math, philo forum. When someone posts an imbecile's guide to science, people tend to point that out. And rightfully so.

This excerpt from your link might be the most ignorant thing I've ever read concerning the universe and science. The author demonstrates the scientific understanding of maybe a 12 year old.

Predictions of Naturalism vs. Christian ID
Characteristic Anti-Supernatural Christian ID
1. Single transcendent beginning will be refuted evidence will increase
2. Fine tuning "design" will be shown to be an artifact, due to incomplete knowledge more examples of extreme fine tuning will be found, indicating true design
3. Uniqueness of earth many rocky planets with oceans and continents will be found earth-like planets will be found to be rare or non-existent
4. Existence of life in the universe life will be found to be abundant in our galaxy, since it is simply the properties of chemistry and physics extraterrestrial life will be rare or non-existent and advanced life will be found only on earth
5. Prebiotic chemistry a naturalistic scenario for the origin of all biochemical pathways and replicative molecules will be found the universe was designed to support living systems, but their creation required ID by God
6. Origin of Life Life emerged late, during ideal environmental conditions. Life began as simple systems (pre-bacteria) Life emerged early under adverse conditions. Life has always been complex
7. New designs in nature Complex new designs would be rare and develop slowly whereas simple transitions would be common No restriction on designs with the possibility that new designs would be created "overnight"
8. Mass extinction events Slow recovery No restrictions on "recovery" period as new species are created

What is the scorecard so far? Science tells us that:

1. There is no evidence for more than one universe or one creation event.
2. Examples of fine tuning continue to increase. Some parameters designed to within a part in 10120.
3. No other rocky planets have been found. THIS IS MY FAVORITE PART!!! LOLMost planets found are large gas giants orbiting very close to their stars.
4. No other life found. SETI has been completely unsuccessful.
5. It is impossible to chemically produce many basic molecules required for any living system.
6. Neither the biochemical nor replicative pathways have been described. In fact, many scientists think that they could not have arisen by any naturalistic means.
7. Contrary to the expectations of evolutionary theory, the fossil record is replete with complex transitions and new designs whereas simple transitions (intermediates) are rare. Evolutionary theory would expect the opposite to be true and to be reflected in the fossil record.
8. Evolution predicts slow recovery following extinctions and that those recoveries will be filled by the species surviving the extinction event. However, the fossil record indicates rapid recovery with completely different designs and species appearing within a period of tens of thousands of years or less.

Maybe we like the topic? We just don't like it in the way you want us to.

Your posts are like a chancre sore that you can't help touching with the tip of your tongue, even though you know it will sting when you do.

Thank you. I found this particular graphic quite informative:

That's a very sciency looking chart.

Ignore stuff like the above, and focus on other stuff that this guy has done.
