Intelligent design science?

Evolution is not a ladder.

Wrong. Evolution stops with the extinction of life on this planet. Life is merely a process and by definition, has to end. We have a billion years at best before the sun boils off all the water and atmosphere around us, and that's long before it reaches its red giant phase in its own stellar evolution.


Quote:Or is it something that an atheist has never thought of before?
Atheism is not a world view, materialism is. Atheism is merely a response to unproven theistic claims and nothing more.


Quote:Oh wait, that's right. Atheists know everything because they have passed the first level of propaganda in God servitude.
I can safely say, to the highest degree of certainty, that no atheist here to date has ever once said "we know everything". No one is so legendarily thick here that they'd make such a blind unfounded appeal to absolute knowledge in such an overbearing pretentious manner.

I wish I could say the same for theists as a whole though...


Quote:But don't stop there! You have so much further evolutionary progress. God concept is dead. So What's next?
Within the broad context of atheism inclusively and exclusively? Nothing.

Atheism is nothing more than the disbelief or lack of belief in deities.

Right now the fact that I care about taking a scientific approach to investigating and scrutinising reality says absolutely nothing about my atheism. And if ever I grow old enough to become senile enough to start seriously considering views that are inconsistent with reality such as spiritualism and the 'magic' of Buddhist reincarnation I make an appeal to my fellow man that if they had an ounce of compassion and/or empathy they'd euthanize me.
