Please name one scientist that gave up on research because
of ID. Maybe this will help you get started, it's a pdf page
that takes about 15 seconds with a dialup ...

There is no mention of ID in the statment those on that list
ostensibly supports.


If they are suspect of random mutation and natural selection as
the cause what do you suppose is left?


Everything else, of course.


Like what?


Like the ones I stated below. Crimony!



You didn't state any.


False.

You mention one, Lamarck, in this post. So you
believe those who are questioning the validity of Darwinian Evolution
would favor a pre-Darwinian model instead?


Uh, I thought that was your position.

I don't think it is
seriously considered as part of evolution nor has been for some time.
Certainly, DNA testing can shoot it down these days.


ID is not seriously considered as a part of evolution nor has
been for some time.


The statement reads: "We are skeptical of claims for the
ability of random mutation and natural selection to account
for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence
for Dawinian theory should be encouraged."

No mention of ID or any other variant of creationsim nor any
mention of any of the variations on transmutation theory.
Not being an expert in the field, I don't now how many others
there may be.



Wouldn't they all pretty much fall under those general descriptions?



Don't those general descriptions extend beyond ID?



They all fall under Darwinian Evolution a far as I can tell.


That is because you do not understand them, even after looking
up Lamarck.


Evidently you don't either.


I did some serching and there doesn't seem to be a distinction
between evolution and Darwinian Evolution. I don't see any
others.



Try searching for 'Lamarck'. Surely you remember Lamarck from
high school biology.



Nope. I must have missed that day.


Evidently, if you ever studied biology at all, you never got
up to a normal high school level of understanding.


You don't see as much about transmutation because transmutation
does not have the financial support that is behind 'ID'.



Huh??? Surely you jest?
