Wrong. The teleological argument for the existence of God begins there.

ID is not (allegedly) an argument for the existence of God. It is (allegedly) a "theory" for explaining biological diversity and detail. In actuality it is a political subterfuge for subverting the secular underpinnings of science education in the United States.

Your inability to distinguish between them is merely sloppy thinking. But ultimately, your argument here is not with me. It is with the proponents of ID.

No... I am being accurate and you are making a muddle of two different things.

I have great respect for your opinions as well. I hang on every word. What I especially admire is that you never resort to insults when you have no reasonable response.

Opinions have nothing actually to do with it.

You're completely ignoring the people who don't buy into creationist propaganda. Stop thinking so narrowly. Why so black and white? Is that the limit of your capability? Furthermore, why the hostility towards others who examine various theories to see where they are in accord and where they conflict? Makes you look like a fascist.

"Researchers at Harvard University announced today that they have found what appears to be a message from God written inside the human genome.

In a little-explored section of non-coding DNA, a team of top geneticists discovered a 22-word snippet of ancient Aramaic in which God confirms his existence and his role in creating life on Earth."

Message From God Found Hidden Inside DNA Sequence

ID is creationist propaganda. This has been established by a court of law.

So you are wrong yet again.

Not all ID is creationist propaganda. You're choosing to only narrowly conceive of one institution as the entirety of ID. Foolish mistake. But that's your prerogative.

Yes. All of it. Exclusively and without exception.

To do otherwise would be to abandon all personal integrity.
