So, if this was designed by intelligence, I'm really pissed off. There is way too much pain, suffering, unneeded death, cruelty, and evil in this world. Aside from all the things we do to each other, nature is a real mother. I think we ought to rename it "malevolent design".

I'm embarrassed to say that Seattle, where I live, also contains the Discovery Institute, the main architect and pusher of intelligent design. I hope their idiocy doesn't splatter on me.

Actually I don't think the people who came up with it are idiots at all. They are liars. They don't really think I.D. is science. They are just using it to push their agenda. Wow, who'd a thunk it -- Christians who tell lies. Way to go, guys.

I think our media bears a lot of responsibility for this mess. They report on intelligent design as if it made any sense. The Seattle Times recently ran a large op-ed piece written by one of the Discovery Institute honchos. I sent them a letter taking them to task for giving a microphone to a liar, but they didn't publish it.
