Christians, what evidence is there to support the Intelligent Design Theory?

Answer 1

Evidence is not needed. Only faith matters.

Answer 2

"Simply and plainly, the fossil record - re: the fossil record (Cambrian layer) shows the sudden appearance of animal life -all at once."

Oh dear, you should try reading some science. If animal life suddenly appeared at the Cambrian, how do you account for the Ediacaran fossils?

There is no evidence to support the Intelligent Design hypothesis as Judge Jones ruled in Dover. ID is creationism with a new frock on and is not science.

Answer 3

For these people quoting the Bible, just stop it! Its ridiculous and it just shows others that you cannot think for yourself. Form your own opinions based on logical reasoning. Just because you choose to ignore science, evidence, fact, and just common sense doesn't mean you should just make something up. Science and faith are two different things. They are at opposite ends of the spectrum. So for the people trying to use science to support their theories its not working. God can never be proven to exist so just stop trying. Either you believe or you don't.

Answer 4

As a Christian I do not think that such a theory is useful to promote faith in God. God is found thru faith. The creation does testify to God's existence but only to those that believe.

I as a Christian want to be very explicit. My belief in God comes from faith.

Some one can look at the complexity of life as a pathway to belief in God. I just do not think that a scientific theory is necessary here.

The proof and evidence is all around you and everywhere, undeniable proof, and indisputable visible evidence. It is called creation and life. Unless your are blind, deaf, and senseless. You can see, smell, taste, hear, feel, and examine the evidence.

We live on a planet teeming with life. Plant life with approximately 250,000 species, animal life with over a million species. Scientists are learning just how complex life is. So complex that it requires design. The evidence of design requires a designer. Scientists are also learning the conditions for life; just how perfect conditions here on planet Earth are to support all this life.

The human brain, it absorbs forty megabytes per second of data while awake. That is two terabytes of data a day. At night, it sorts and stores that data through the creation of new chemical bonds and synaptic connectors.

Sure, right, this all just happened and evolved. This sort of thinking takes considerable faith, exponentially more faith than believing in a creator.

Answer 6

there is none. a minimum of in Behe's ("Darwin's Black field") formulated there could be none. Behe's argument is to not instruct or exhibit some thing yet to argue that a naturalistic clarification of the form of existence can in no way be formulated. interior the 10th anniversary replace version Behe clarifies (in a footnote connection with a piece of writing in a mag) what he ability: "by 'clever layout' (id) I recommend to recommend layout previous the regulations of nature" Now technological know-how seems on the regulations of nature, for the regulations of nature. to assert that's "previous the regulations nature" says some issues: a million. technological know-how with in no way be able to furnish an define of it 2. we are able to in no way be able to hit upon the effects of it. resembling important-bang theory. on the singularity before the bang not something could be envisioned as all organic regulations provide-out. so we are able to work out result AFTER the enormous-bang , like history radiation and the growth of the universe yet we are able to sense, pay attention, see, hit upon not something related to the universe before the enormous bang. Now a million to me seems particularly outrageously presumptious of Behe, yet that may not the concern right here. the concern pay attention is two : if it grew to become into non-organic there can in no way be ANY information for it. If we ever chanced on any information it may instruct it to be organic (a minimum of partly) and for this reason refute Behe's place.

Answer 7

Simply and plainly, the fossil record - re: the fossil record (Cambrian layer) shows the sudden appearance of animal life -all at once. [please see : www.dissentfromdarwin.org] and the existence of Uranium. Uranium has a half-life then, decays [breaks down] into lead. If the earth's surface is millions or billions of years old, then why hasn't all the Uranium broken down [decayed] into lead ? There had to be a Creator to make or cause the process to make Uranium at one starting point or it would all be lead by now. There is much more evidence to substantiate creation by Intelligent Design.

Answer 8

There is a considerable amount of evidence to show that the world is not millions or billions of years old. If the world is less than a million years old, which evidence such as flood deposits, Rock layers after volcanic eruptions, Radio Carbon dating of fossil fuels, cave formations, etc etc are even remotely close, then evolution as it is now taught is history. There is plenty of scientists and Biologists now starting to question present day Darwinian evolution.
And to your answerer with no name, I guess I would have to respond that we should take the evidence of people that condoned slavery less than 200 years ago over those that condoned it 2000 years ago? Try to remember that Darwin stated his theory showed why men were more advanced and intelligent than women!

Answer 9

There is no Intelligent Design Theory. It's a hypothesis because of its lack of evidence, and more importantly, its lack of testable predictions.

The half-life of uranium is about 4.5 billion years. The Earth is roughly the same age. Half the uranium has decayed.

Answer 10

The Microwave Oven
The TV set
Fuji Apples
Motts Apple Sauce (try that one at home with store bought apples and see if you get that kind of bottle to bottle taste)

These things don't grow on trees or come from apes.

Now, go to radio shack, get some electronic parts, put them in a box, give them to an ape to shake up and let me know when NATURE accidentially makes you an IPOD.

An IPOD, a lot less complicated to make than a human.
