Re: [asa] Innate design detector?

It should be clear by now that neither complexity nor irreducible complexity is really a problem for evolution. This also helps explain why Behe is now asking for mutation by mutation pathways for IC systems. And yet it's sufficient for ID to argue that it looks designed thus it must be... There appears some imbalance between what is good for the goose and good for the gander. ----- Original Message ---- From: David Campbell <pleuronaia@gmail.com> To: asa@calvin.edu Sent: Friday, November 3, 2006 2:10:03 PM Subject: Re: [asa] Innate design detector? Perhaps geology can provide some useful data here. Complex molecules such as clay minerals can be produced by ordinary chemical reactions in the environment, yet they have a large number of components (atoms) arranged into a specific configuration, giving them properties that are not present if the components are reaaranged or partially removed. They thus have specified complexity, yet any design must be attributed to fine tuning in the laws of chemistry and physics rather than to intervention-style direct action. -- Dr. David Campbell 425 Scientific Collections University of Alabama "I think of my happy condition, surrounded by acres of clams"
