It seems as if the authors know that if someone logically rejects the most socially accepted (to the point of being expected) form of superstition [i.e. Christianity], then there is little hope for their new agey, short half-life, money-making drone memes to hook in.
Not really, whatever things “seem” like to you historical facts show that [...]

Please tell us how you would treat an infection if on the whim of some supernatural entity an antibiotic that was 100% safe and effective on one day became a deadly poison to humans the next?
The reason that science and medicine as we know it in the West arose is because of the “Jewish influence” [...]

You explain convincingly why there is no alternative to methodological naturalism.
The irony of the notion of methodological naturalism is that it only makes sense if its falsification, i.e. supernaturalism might actually be detected in some way. Yet its proponents argue that this is impossible as a matter of principle and surround this claim with the [...]

I assume you don’t think it would be a good option to pursue supernatural causes in medicine.
Perhaps you do not have to pursue them, as they might arise naturally. Or is that simply impossible?
After all, we already admit to transphysical causes and transcendent realities in medicine all the time. It is by our innate sense [...]

Intelligent Design Creationism is struggling to maintain scientific credibility.
Not really, most proponents of ID are seeking the truth while in my experience most biologists are mainly seeking to maintain their professional identity, scientific credibility, grants and so on.
The movement claims to be scientific, not religious…
That distinction probably has more to do with the fact that [...]

1. You want to talk origin of the universe or evolution? When we’re talking origin we’re on almost equal footing — neither of us knows for sure, but at least science has natural, measurable, observable data on its side.
In a universe in which scientists are imagining multiple universes the term natural has no meaning. Indeed, [...]

We KNOW that muffins, jazz solos and the rest are all created by human hands (Mandy’s first attempts at muffins, and certainly my first jazz solos, were probably failures). There is no argument on tha…t point.
Yes there is an argument, Darwinian creation myths can be imagined to explain human minds and hands in terms of [...]

These are from way down in the comments section of this post.
Still no definition of CSI in biological organisms, no examples of how to calculate such claimed CSI in biological organisms.
I do not believe that the language of mathematics is necessary for people to understand the claim. Take the mouse trap example, it has a [...]

Research out of Brown University has found that cells move in ways that are much more complex than previously thought.  It’s yet another example of the complexity of life’s design that consistently surprises biologists.
“We’ve learned that cells move in much more complex ways than previously believed,” said Christian Franck, assistant professor in engineering at Brown [...]

Because of their rigid adherence to a failed framework, Darwinists have continuously been surprised at the sophistication of even the simplest organisms.  The researchers examined mycoplasma pneumoniae and found the following.
The inner workings of a supposedly simple bacterial cell have turned out to be much more sophisticated than expected.
An in-depth “blueprint” of an apparently minimalist [...]
