Scientists from the Evangelical Center for Faith-Based Reasoning are now asserting that the long-held "theory of gravity" is flawed, and they have responded to it with a new theory of Intelligent Falling. According to the ECFR, there are many phenomena that cannot be explained by secular gravity alone, including such mysteries as how angels fly, how Jesus ascended into Heaven, and how Satan fell when cast out of Paradise."Let's take a look at the evidence," said ECFR senior fellow Gregory Lunsden. "In Job 5:7, we read, 'But mankind is born to trouble, as surely as sparks fly upwards.' If gravity is pulling everything down, why do the sparks fly upwards with great surety? This clearly indicates that a conscious intelligence governs all falling." So, what do you think?

Despite what you may think, this question does not make you appear *intelligent* at all.
My guess is that you have never studied ID theory, and are just poking fun at something you heard about from a friend.
