History Forum / General / Ancient History / February 2005Fossil manuscripts
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4294943.stm A palaeontologist is proposing treating manuscripts as the "fossil remains" of populations of manuscripts, in order to estimate the number in circulation and how it varied with time, based on biological models for the biological fossil record.  SignatureBobby Bryant Austin, Texas Evolution via intelligent design . . . not a problem. Sean Pitman www.DetectingDesign.com > Evolution via intelligent design . . . not a problem. > > Sean Pitman > www.DetectingDesign.com It's not evolution at all, Sean. It's more taphonomy. Just because there's paleontology involved doesn't mean it's about evolution. You need to learn how to read for comprehension. > > Evolution via intelligent design . . . not a problem. > > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > there's paleontology involved doesn't mean it's about evolution. You > need to learn how to read for comprehension. And the evolution of the manuscripts is not designed, intelligently or otherwise, even though every manuscript is intelligently copied. Nobosy *intends* or *designs* those errors to creep in. It happens because even the most intelligent process of reproduction is liable to error. And Sean should know this, so I read him as being disingenuous here. SignatureJohn S. Wilkins john@wilkins.id.au AA#2207 web: www.wilkins.id.au blog: evolvethought.blogspot.com Fiat lunch! Seanpit wrote in response to the lead post regarding manuscripts: "Evolution via intelligent design . . . not a problem." To which the words of Simon and Garfunkel respond eloquently: "Man, he hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest..." Your real life examples of intelligent design continue to fail the test Sean and will do so until you can find some independent evidence other than arguments from incredulity to indicate that there is a designer that represents a candidate to complete your design. |
