Creation - Evolutionists not dealing with the arguments
The ABC news article contains very little science from the evolutionists side of things.
Once again, the discussion is not about the facts, science or truth, but merely trying to disqualify anything consistent with theistic religion.

An example from the article
Professor Forrest points out, however, that a 1999 Discovery fund-raising document specifically endorses the conservative Christian agenda.

"Design theory promises to reverse the stifling dominance of the materialist worldview, and to replace it with a science consonant with Christian and theistic convictions," the document reads.


So once again, any sort of Christian motivation is automatically assumed to debunk a claim. Such is the religious discrimination that abounds today. As if anyone doesn't have some sort of motivation based on their worldview...

Secondly, Professor Forrest misreads the document. Certainly ID is consistent (consonant) with the Christian AND theistic worldviews. That does not necessarily imply that ID is endorsing any particular agenda. It is amazing that a professor of philosophy could make such a basic logical mistake.
