Astounding, Astonishing, or Simply Unbelievable?
A news release from the Discovery Institute breathlessly announces that "intelligent design scientists and experts whose discoveries in cosmology, biology, physics, and DNA" will "present astonishing scientific evidence that is overturning the evolutionary thinking of the past" at a two-day conference called Darwin vs. Design to be held in Dallas April next month.
"Conference goers will hear firsthand," they say, "the astounding implications these discoveries are having on our society, our politics and our culture."
Since carping about gaps in the fossil record and the dirty dealings of those dastardly Darwinists falls short of constituting actual evidence for intelligent design, we would be truly astonished if evidence of any kind at all were to be presented.
