    Dave,

    Let me return to your statement that, "I am committed to the notion that the
    universe is designed intelligently." Why do you object to those who try to
    find concrete examples of that intelligent design in the universe? Did God
    instantiated design, or is the statement only an abstraction with no concrete
    instance to represent it?

    <<It seems to me that the way you cited Romans indicates that there is

    I cited Romans the way St. Paul wrote it. Your argument is with him, not me.

    You may have the last word on this thread. Thanks for the discussion.
    Looking forward to seeing you at Gordon College.

    Peace,

    Bob
