Intelligent Design

This is my first post in few months now.... To be honest I probably wouldn't have made another post ever if it hadn't been for my stumbling upon the debate of intelligent design and it's place in science. I may have lost many users with that last sentence. The debate I pose here about intelligent design is not a religious one, it is one based around freedom. Freedom of speech, freedom to voice an opinion against the "norm" without being excommunicated from the world or "rational" thinking. I do not believe in God in the conventional sense, I was raised protestant and have struggled with faith my entire life. Throughout my educational career I have been at odds with evolution, I could and can see its truths and its value to science, and they defiantly lead to some of my religious questioning. But I also saw flaws, flaws that you see in most theories, especially ones that try to explain so much with just it's one process or over arching principle. There is enough unknown for there to be space for the debate on intelligent design, not creationism not radical theological denial-ism, but intelligent design, loosely defined as The presence of intelligence in the design of life, i.e the development of cell structures DNA etc with guidance rather than strict randomness and natural selection.
Backing theses ideas have left many scientists and journalists out of the job, black listed just at the mention of the idea. This is unacceptable, the United States is a country based on freedom, we should be allowed to voice our opinions without fear of losing grants or being fired from our well deserved jobs. This control is exactly what Darwin faced when he was developing his theory he was the lone wave against the establishment in his time, Now his ideas have been canonized creating a new establishment that is just as stifling to scientific discovery as it was in Darwin's time. Back on track I am not here to say that either Darwinism or Intelligent design are perfect and that one need be taught over the other. I would just like to see people treat Intelligent design fairly giving it a chance to develop and explain what it can in conjunction with current scientific norms.

William Sisters

So we once again have a Williams on Williams Wimbledon final... What should we think of this? should we watch and see which one proves to be better this time or should concede to say that they won't be playing their best stuff this forth of July. That maybe they will knowingly or unknowingly throw the match? As I sit and watch SportsCenter and any number of other sports commentary shows, This is what I hear... Will they play their hardest against each other is it make a better match or worse match... Then After all the debate and stupid comments I realize, It doesn't matter it's just tennis. No one gives a shit. Congrats to the two manliest looking women in Tennis for being the best. Personally I'd rather watch some hot eastern European players grunt and scream their way to the top, regardless of talent. Sex sells and that's okay with me.

Michael Jackson

What do we do now? THE KING OF POP IS DEAD>>>? Who gives a shit about a sad little drug addict dieing? no one gives a shit when some junky passes out in an ally and never wakes up.. should be do an autopsy on the bum laying in the gutter with the empty bottle of jack Daniels in his cold lifeless hand... NO we know Michael Jackson was a great musical artist... But that wasn't yesterday that was what 20 years ago? people talk about how sad it is that he turned into what he was in the end.. But what did anyone do to help him when we all watched him transforming into a freak? We sat back and watched pointed and laughed.. just like the whole Britney Spears luckily people have shown some compassion for her. But Jacko fuck that, he went off the deep end and no one did a thing, just prescribed him more drugs and allowed him to perform surgery after surgery. Now we all have the balls to look back and say all these good things about him and ask how it all happened.... I know one thing that this kid was raised to be fucked up. He was raised to be a child star and grew up not know what the real world was like, not experiencing life as a normal person, not going through any type of normal human growth or development.... With that I say fuck everyone in the media exploiting this shit, and RIP Michael I hope you figure out your shit in the afterlife.
