Randomness and Theology

Actually, Behe, and @Agauger, both argued exactly this when they criticized the work by Nasvall et al. here. Of course, this was their approach to denying the obvious, that their ideas about the inaccessibility of evolutionary change to unguided processes are completely refuted.

Many in the ID camp absolutely quiver with excitement when they refer to the old work by Cairns and coworkers. IIRC, Spetner even wrote a book that claimed, in essence, that particular mutations are in fact guided by design. Maybe you’ve read it, @Eddie.

Fact is, a core tenet of ID theory is that design guides, creates specific mutations that are required for the unfolding of life as we know it.
