RE: [asa] Theological Naturalism - 'The Nature of God' = Naturalism

There is definitely research on cellular motors that has occurred
specifically to address Behe's statements that it's irreducibly complex. I'm
pretty sure I've heard of other research also, as well as statements to the
effect that it was spurred by the criticism from the ID camp.

This may be true that the IDM has lost many people from the Christian faith
or at least confused them, but at this point it is no more than an
unverified belief, a feeling so to speak. I've said for a few years already
that ID is a transition theory that will ultimately give way to something
more significant. Actually, I don't even think the IDM has stimulated more
scientific research, perhaps only in studying the Movement rather than in
the natural sciences laboratories. If it had come up with a serious research
programme in the past 14 years (since the Pajaro meeting in 1993) then
surely we all would have heard about it by now. May your sadness be tempered
by hope for the future.

more scientific research but has entrenched many away from Christianity.
It's very sad, IMO.
