Filtering in is a complaint that I pointed out that every experiment done by scientists in order to "prove" that life could have arisen by random chance physical events alone is rather stupendously self-defeating BECAUSE IT IS INEVITABLE THAT A SCIENTIFIC EXPERIMENT HAPPENS ONLY AS A RESULT OF INTELLIGENT DESIGN (philosophical ineptitude in having that intent doesn't negate the intelligent design of the action) and that there is absolutely no way to filter out that intelligent design from what resulted. An experiment, successful or not, cannot demonstrate that what it did can happen without the intelligence that designed and carried out, evaluated, wrote up and published the paper on it. IT INEVITABLY DEMONSTRATES THAT AT LEAST IN SO FAR AS CAN BE DISCERNED THROUGH SCIENCE, INTELLIGENT DESIGN IS REQUIRED TO PRODUCE THAT RESULT.
And if that's the case, that such philosophically inept, ideologically fevered merely human intelligence can produce the results it does, in all of our limitation and pathetic inability, the infinite intelligence of God would find anything any ideologically campaigning atheist scientist can do ever so much easier than we can conceive of.
It's not strictly relevant to this topic but I loved this fairly recent lecture given by the always reasonable, always honest, always open-minded scientist, Rupert Sheldrake. I especially liked learning about analogue hydraulic computers, which I'd never heard of before and how he used his knowledge of that to come up with a model of the difference in seed formation in annual and perennial plants. I've got to find out what these pigeon peas he is always talking about are like. I wonder if they'd grow here. I wonder if the damned bean beetles would devour them.
