THE 'INTELLIGENT DESIGN' THEORY OF CREATION: YOUR OPINION?


[+] ballot by mojo
created Wed May 25, 05

In sum: Man and dinosaurs lived together without fear, for there was no death yet. Dinosaurs, alongside Adam and Eve, lived in harmony (the ferociously fanged T. rex was likely a vegetarian). Then came the Fall of Man and an ugly world where dinosaurs preyed on each other and the first extinctions occurred. The destruction of the dinosaurs was caused by the Flood. This wiped out most of the dinosaurs still alive and created the Grand Canyon and huge layers of sedimentary rock seen around the world.


The Bible makes no mention of dinosaurs -- lions, lambs and goats predominate alongside us bipeds. What do you think of this new take on the creation of the world -- a hybrid of the creationists' and evolutionists' views? Does this make you wonder about what committee decisions were made 2000 years ago when the Bible was written?

And women -- does this totally bum you out? If we adhere to this theory, are we not only responsible for Original Sin, but ultimately the cruelty of the food chain?

Do you accept this new take on our origins?

Yes, it makes total sense to me.
No, it's just another tall tale.
Horsecrap
Yabba Dabba Doo!

They fail to mention any existance of Sleestaks, Pylons or Dopey the baby Brontosaur.

I think this is why some people have a problem with religion. It is this literal interpretation of the Bible that makes no logical sense. This literal interpretation is rather strange seeing as how much of the Bible is allegory or uses parables. The type of "logic" in this argument only serves to alienate people from religion and cause other people to think that these pro intelligent design people are nuts. There can be complexity of life evolving without the need of a God to design. The existance of God does not need this argument to prove it's existance.

So THIS is the I.D. concept of creation? Hmph, they can keep it... Much too simplistic. Not having studied their ideology, I had assumed their main thrust was that there was an Intelligence - God? - behind the evolution of all species, which I wouldn't have a problem with. But this is beyond science fiction. It's a scary fairy story.

Although I do prefer an intelligent God at the root of the equation, otherwise it wouldn't make any sense, but that's just me.

Why is it that intelligent design seems so unintelligent?
by cranky on Wed May 25, 05 3:22pm [+]

If mojo's synopsis is the root of the I.D. theory, then it's extremely and disappointingly unintelligent... nothing fits.

Not that I entirely buy the Bible's version of events. As I've believed for the last two decades, the Bible is the Word of God, as Written by Man. And we ALL know what Man turned out to be, both for better AND worst.

Boggling to the mind. Given that there is no mention of dinosaurs in the Bible, why do these people have to go to such ridiculous lengths? 'Seven days' is an analogy. Surely anyone with a modicum of abstract thought can figure that one out?

Truthseeker: The Council of Nicea really stitched us up, did they not? Constantine was a real opportunist there, I think... did a lot of damage to what possibly was - very likely was - the truth.

It's just a way of making creationism sound more scientific--and, ironically, more plausible.

I don't have a problem with it. I know that some may think I am ignorant but Darwin's Theory is just that a theory. Wasn't is just the theory of gravity until it became the law of gravity? Now if the missing link is discovered call me and I will reevaluate my beliefs.

However I think that God created something, realized it wasn't working and restarted. Hence the missing link.

I am not particularly fond of the name on the ballot I prefer divine/guided evolution. But it is a matter of faith.

Sounds ridiculous. An Intelligent designer sounds much more realistic
by kingAlfredTheGreat on Thu May 26, 05 12:46am [+]

^I don't know about realistic, but it certainly sounds nobler.

Inteligent design in my opinion.
by johan_moritz on Thu May 26, 05 6:18am [+]

WOW. I didn't read mojo's description. I thought you are talking about the INTELLIGENT design theory. :--)
by johan_moritz on Thu May 26, 05 6:36am [+]

yeah thats what i thought at first Johan

There's a cartoon about these "theories".

Evolution:
Here are the facts. What theory can we find that support these facts.

ID:
Here's the "theory". What facts can we find that support this theory.

Which just goes to prove how little we really know, doesn't it?
The human race must be a constant source of amusement to our intelligent designer. ;)
