There have been lots of false speculations from ID-critics on the Internet. Let’s now talk about what really happened, with a rough chronology of the relevant events.

Centrioles are organelles involved in cell division and the construction of cilia and flagella.

Many critics of intelligent design have promoted false, straw-man versions of ID.

It is not every day that we encounter such a humble attitude from a scientist who is prepared to candidly acknowledge the incompleteness in our understanding of the mechanics of evolution.

In Chapter 11 of Darwin’s Doubt, Stephen Meyer responds extensively to critics who have claimed that the evolution of new genes is well understood.

The Cambrian animals exploded onto the scene because evolution works fast sometimes. What, you’ve got a problem with that?

Ironically, the rarity of genes and proteins in sequence space means that even thirty million years is not nearly enough time for the neo-Darwinian mechanism to generate a new gene or protein, much less a new animal form.

For years we’ve received inquiries from educators of all kinds asking for an introductory intelligent design curriculum.

Has a diminutive water-dwelling carnivorous plant singlehandedly revived the concept of “junk DNA”?

It’s already quite competitive, and this will only make it more so. Oh well.

Have evolutionists in the Netherlands succeeded in explaining parts of a cilium using only natural selection?

Imagine that Darwin had fallen overboard and there was no Origin of Species or anything else from his pen.
