I think Woodie is upset that "Be Kind To Idiots Day" was last month and he missed it. Wait till next year.

Meanwhile, back on track....

Title Wrote:Intelligent Design: Did you design yourself?

Yes. Made a few critical mistakes too. Not sure if I should go back to the drawing board or attempt a hamfisted fix.

It's only hard because theist arguments are almost always fundamentally terrible and we've pretty much seen them all a dozen times.

This. And they're always presented as if we've never heard them before

"Intelligent" design, unfortunate use of two genuinely great words for creativity. Some words are meant to be kept for science but now the Palin police on an unprofessional news network play the connotation swap game and get away with it. "Truth" is the big 'n by the way. These words are going to need some connotation restructuring after the damage that's been done.

I for one would be interested in hearing about any epigenetics studies with regards to two-way communication between a fetus and her mom. Can an individual's genes be changed based on a 9 month pregnancy, either fetus or mother? In this sense you may have already designed yourself.
