Intelligent Design

A little while ago, I posed to question to someone on the forums (lukkyjay, i think) of why ID was ridiculed as much as it was.

This is why.

I was reading through their article on gravity, and for about the first half, I was convinced that it was satire. Then I kept reading, and they just might be serious. They basically seem to be saying “If something can’t be completely explained and proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, then it’s the work of an intelligent designer”. They even say that Shakespeare must have had divine inspiration, because:

As GILD would say, keep the tinfoil hats on.

There are things on there that seem blatantly satirical, like Kansas’ Periodic Table of Elements…but the rest seems very serious. I honestly have no idea now if it’s serious or not.

Damned Atheists making light of serious matters.

That’s OK. That site isn’t in Snopes so there is no way that you really could have been expected to know.

Those Atheists sure are creative. They have to be to be able to explain how everything came about without any divine intervention. They have so much overflowing creativity that they can come up with some very creative web sites.

Did no the label: Kansas: As dumb as you think give it away somewhat?
