Often, the unspoken thought underlying experiments is "I wonder what would happen if I do this...." It's fun!

And often with the Darwin Awards.

"That's the most frightening sex toy I've ever seen."

Yup. Looks like something out of Dead Ringers

I don't think I noticed it so much when I was young and clueless, but now - whoa the kink...

I know. I got Master and Servant, Strangelove, etc., but then Behind the Wheel . . . (which Martin claims is actually about driving. Riiiiiiight)

I got the prettiest Hannukah candles at the grocery store. They look like hand dipped, and are in gradations: dark to light blue, orange to yellow and a deep burgandy to stop sign red. I have no idea what I'll use them for but...pretty.

Well you could convert and then you'll have a use.

Okay, bon bon, but see, my watch is complex, and obviously, someone intelligent designed it.

It is pink?

Speaking of science: Our future is in his hands...

(someone cut his bangs too short!)

Okay, this:

This is total BS-- they ARE asking for actual historical narratives, or they're not at all convinced by the mountains of data accumulated to show how and why a certain trait could have evolved. It's gobbledygook.

And the 'constantly changing the finish line,' are answers I get. Thanks to you both (and Jess's wakas, which I hope her OB can find for her).

So an example (from the Dembski blog entry) of this unconvinced-by-mountains of data is when he says this?...

**The one thing new here is that Orr looks to the type three secretory system (TTSS) as a possible evolutionary precursor for the bacterial flagellum. Our side has pretty well handled this objection (see Behe’s contribution to my coedited collection Debating Design with Cambridge University Press as well as my response to Ken Miller titled “Still Spinning Just Fine“). The problem with looking to the TTSS as an evolutionary precursor of the bacterial flagellum (leaving aside that the best evidence points to the TTSS “devolving” from the flagellum rather than evolving into it) is that it is so much simpler than the flagellum. Thus, in merely pointing to the TTSS as a possible evolutionary precursor, one has not offered anything like a detailed Darwinian pathway to the flagellum.

Is 'detailed Darwinian pathway,' a Discovery Institute-ism?

eta...

bon bon, would Bob Bob agree with Nutty's assessment of Dembski's rhetorical skills?
