Ironic science

Tuesday October 25, 2005 - 2:59PM EDT

I was calm. Not until I read that some British asspirate says intelligent design is valid science. This fucker cited the work of Behe. Behe is a fucking crackpot and is a disgrace to science.

Ok let me take a different approach. Behe's hypothesis hinges on this thing he calls "irreducible complexity". We are not going to attack that I'm going to go to something else. The criticism is that evolution doesn't fully explain the origin of life. And that somehow ID does. I see a massive problem here. First off evolution in its purest sense never proclaims to solve all the questions to the origin of life. When will people understand what science is and get that dogmatic religious mindset out of their head. Furthermore saying there is a designer is no explanation it is a fucking cop out. We humans design things, right? Well that stuff we designed didn't just magic itself out of thin air. So when these ID clowns propose designer they aren't saying anything. They don't go into reasons why the designer chose what it did. This is one of the main reasons I don't understand the hole in people's mind who want to champion intelligent design as some kind of answer to the questions that evolutionary theory still has. It is no answer. It is giving up. As I mentioned before the sad part is that they have pointed out some poignant questions about evolution but have refused to explore them. They simple insert designer and call it the end all answer. They complain that mainstream science is not accepting their hypothesis and that it needs to be explored. With the way they are thinking anything can be "irreducibly complex". It is just a matter of where your understanding ends and that is variable among each person. Their own scientific arrogance is leading them away from true scientific discovery. Its weird. Behe is telling us that he is so sure of his scientific knowledge of certain things that he knows it has come to a limit. That is a paradox. Scientific knowledge is inheirently limitless, it is not a static body of knowledge but the continued discovery of things. To say that your contiued discovery of things has definitively brought you to the end isn't even logical.

Now who are these clowns that say Intelligent design needs to be explored. What the fuck are you going to explore in intelligent design. You have only two thing you really can explore. You have to find the blueprints and seek out the designer. Well seems to me that the only way to seek out the designer is apparantely through death so why don't all you intelligent design freaks just die right now. As for the blueprints, I don't hear about anyone looking for them. Tell me seriously, how else are you suppose to explore intelligent design futher? That is a fucking question. Even if you say something like, we can explore why the designer did what it did. You are going to have to either just make up reasons are start reading mystical books. You will have no evidence. Eventually in your exploration of why you'll probably get back to real science and your whole irreducible complexity arguement will go to shit. Also with this intelligent design that is being presented now as "valid science" you don't have a complete hypothesis without showing me the designer and/or the blueprints. So trying to force this crap into schools as legitimate science is irresponsible. Also I find it ironic that seemingly all the intelligent design supporters have the personal belief that god is the designer yet they conviently leave it out of their intelligent design conversation. I'd sooner believe intelligent design if they proposed alien race from across the cosmos designed humans. In fact that is what they are saying by leaving out god in their discussion. They are on the same level as the Raelians. Aliens is much more plausible than this god trash. That at least is in the realm of possibility of finding the designer and the blueprints. Funny how some religion makes this unknowable god the reason for all things. That is no reason, that is bullplop.

How can this Behe continue to teach the essence of what sciene is when he has no idea. It is shameful.
