"...I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me..." [Deuteronomy 5:8-10]

A response to R2's Science Watch:
If science points to a designer, then that's where it leads. Except that ID doesn't.

All it does is claim that life or certain life mechanisms are supposedly 'too complex' to have evolved 'naturally'.

The vast majority of earth & life scientists, including professional biologists, don't agree.

The IDists can't point to any *positive* evidence in favour of ID - all they have is arguments from incredulity & from ignorance. That isn't science.

You repeat the oft-told lie that evolution is necessarily related to atheism. It isn't. Most Christian Scientists and more importantly most Christian biologists accept that evolution occurred as mainstream science states.

You complete your rant with one of the most insidiously ridiculous & moronically stupid claims of ID & Creationism - that science is 'biased' because it only looks for 'natural' causes & effects.

Can you name *one* scientific or technological advance *ever* the entire history of the world that was *not* based on 'natural' causes or effects?

Of course you can't.
