ORIGINAL: Method You need positive evidence as well, which would include observations of the supposed designer actually designing something. Aside from the fact that there is no positive evidence for UCD, there is positive evidence for ID. In the case of ancient pyramids or in the case of ancient archeology or if we find an alien spaceship on mars, we do not need to know how the object was designed (and we don't even need to know how to design such an object) in order to infer design. quote:
You can't infer something from an argument. Inference comes from experimentation. Inferences come from evidence. quote:
Debate in science involves original research. Behe doesn't have any, therefore there is nothing to debate. In order to have a position you must first do the research and publish. More lies or delusion. ID does do research and we have referenced it several times on other forums. I guess you just choose to ignore it. Behe used to do research, but as soon as it was discovered that he was an ID advocate, the secular community no longer funds his research but they fund their own dogma with tax dollars. Then they deny tenure to those who disagree with them (ie: Gonzales). If such misbehavior has no effect on the alleged consensus, then there is no reason for such behavior to occur because the secular community has no reason to believe that the lack of their misbehavior would change the consensus. quote:
I could just as easily claim that evolution is falsifiable because if we observed a supernatural deity producing IC structures evolution would be falsified. This is not satisfactory because we also need positive evidence of evolution at work. The difference here is that we never observe evolution producing IC and SC structures (independent of already existing IC and SC characteristics) but we do observe design doing such. quote:
Students should be shown how ID is being applied in scientific research. Right now, there is nothing to show. I would say that we have shown this to be false several times on these forums. Keep ignoring. Jhud, for example, showed how it was ID advocates that came up with frontloading and evolutionists that have stole it (ie: that one person advocating the universal genome who said he hates ID advocates). Creationists have come up with the notion of natural selection, evolution acquired traits. Creationists and ID advocates have had a history of being right and evolutionists have had a history of being wrong. Darwin was wrong about so much that I am better off using a horror scope for making predictions. Even a horror scope gets it right sometimes. In the case of evolution, it's a hit and miss thing, they get very few things right but the majority of things they get wrong. Or they try to hedge their bets (as has been shown on these forums several times, but keep ignoring). Different authors would make completely opposite predictions and they would cover the entire pool of predictions and those who get it right get remembered and those who get it wrong get forgotten (ie: some evolutionists predicted dinosaurs would have feathers, others predicted they won't).
