Charles Darwin`s original writings beautifully outline the principles of evolution,but the mechanisms are still being worked out today, particularly by the microbiologists, and Lynn Margullis lucidly presents a different perspective on evolutionary mechanisms to Dawkins in her equally clear writings. When there is still so much to be learnt even people such as Behe can make valuable contributions to the debate,and yes be taken seriously. Big Bang cosmology is taken seriously by those working in this field, just how are Behe`s views on ID any more absurd than this?

He claims that darwinistic evolution is nonrandom. If that is the case, it must then have a definite direction – or (gasp!) purpose! The purpose of evolution is to produce better survivors! How strange that the Essence of Being should express Itself via persistence! Hahahahahahahahahaha!

Whenever a system favours a given direction of development, that in itself reveals PURPOSE and hence ultimately INTELLIGENCE! Otherwise how is it possible to explain the bias? Action – as distinct from reaction – and bias can ONLY EVER be generated by Will. There is NO OTHER POSSIBLE SOURCE for spontaneity!

Also, if EVERYTHING can be explained away as being capable of happening without intelligence in the view of darwinists, how exactly do they see themselves? Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! No wonder they do not find it troubling to regard themselves as monkeys – which happen to be INTELLIGENT by the way! Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
