Dr. Swamidass,
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my questions! I really appreciate that you are so accessible to laymen such as myself.
As someone who has found the evidence and arguments used by ID proponents such as Stephen Meyer and Michael Behe very compelling (and a big reason for my coming to faith), I have been challenging myself to find steel-man arguments against ID to keep my bias in check.
I’m at work now so I’ll have to consider this material later.
