Room for Discussing Design in Evolution?

[swamidass (S. Joshua Swamidass)]

@Michael_Callen

So, for the general conversation, we’re safe to assume that things evolved, were intelligently created or some combination of the two, right??

Nope. sorry you just conjecturing here. Need to back up your claim with evidence. Sorry not trying to be mean just scientific.

No problem at all! I love your honesty. So, let’s throw it out to the community.

1. Are there any other options not covered?
2. If there are potentially other options, does that invalidate the scientific exploration into whether or not an intelligence also participated in the evolutionary process? Can we not say, given these three likely options, let’s look and see which are plausible? Or must we know for certain the entire universe of options before we can consider this?

@Patrick the evidence for this has to do with Scripture, which we trust because of Jesus, and I’ve pointed you to the evidence for this. There is no conflict with science for @Michael_Callen to explain how he understands science within the context of his religious belief. None. This also does not mean his position is without evidence. It just takes resources outside of science to make that connection.
