  • CH: Do you think that ID is a case that has merit?

    PH: Yes.

    How can one be so simple-minded with a sibling of whom is quite the opposite!?

  • OMG My ears! Peter is cutting my ears apart! The whistling cuts like a plasma beam!

  • The thumbnail is hilarious, seems to suggest that Hitchens superior intellect is so great that inferior Hitchens needs to read it several times before comprehending it.

  • No problem to teach darwinism in faith schools. The odd thing is that if God is the logos e.g. reason/logic of the universe he would have known the outcome of evolution so it is still within a logic design framework. Would be frigtening if evolution would lead to an irrational outcome. Dawkins might eventually have to eat his hat(e) once he recognises that evolution and the entire universe is governed by one logic, the word of God, e.g love thy neighbour, and selfishnes being the deadly sin.

  • nor has you! rofl

  • I've spent ten parts of this debate being very curious about this thumbnail.

  • Something tells me if you took Peter's extreme Christian views a Squeshed them into Christopher's extreme right-wingism you would create a force unto fox news that what would be a rival for leadership lol maybe there is a god and created this super being and said... nah that's too much and separated them into two beings to fight over for the good of mankind as a whole lol. I swear if Peter favored bush and repubs the way chris did O'Rielly would have a run for his money.

  • Science IS skepticism. 

  • Hitchens imperial argument....@_@. He sounds like my dad saying evolution theory is just as credible as creation science. This is where he loses me.

  • @MusicHypno You think people who think the Earth is flat are going to know that light, composed of photons, takes any amount of time to travel?

  • No scientific theory is 'absolute truth', they are the best evidence-based and continually tested and improved, falsifiable explanations of the world. Intelligent design offers no method, no disproof and is the result of marrying an argument from ignorance to begging the question. ID is just creationism with a lab coat. Evolution theory might be proved false, but special creation/design is already known to be wrong.

  • @haz020190 Peter got his religion when he was in his 40s, he and his Jewish wife both converted. Christopher's atheism has nothing to do with his childhood.
