Intelligent Design: A Smart Idea?
نویسنده
چکیده
“Intelligent Design” (ID) is the name given to a new school of thought regarding the origin and evolution of life on earth. While it claims no specific spiritual allegiance, it argues that living things are “irreducibly complex” and, therefore, clearly the product of intentional design. As a scientific theory, ID is little more than a rhetorical device; no independent research or evidence are provided. Theologically, ID is problematic in the demands it puts on God. Ultimately, ID is bad theology and worse science.
