As for open mindedness, while my posts may not suggest that for someone living in the ID dream world, I am pretty open minded. I would ask whether you were? ...[text shortened]... tant rejection of evolution that seems posited by a belief in ID, I'd suggest not very much.
The use of science and technology to investigate and establish facts in criminal or civil courts of law.
A simple referral to the dictionary and a little reading between the lines: it is the use of scientific principles and reasonable criteria to detect the presence of "intelligent design" in any given situation.
"Could the dude have fallen and broken his neck, or is there reasonable cause to suspect an assailant (intelligent agent)?"
How about the SETI program -- the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence. Is this not a field of science too?
So the argument here is Evolution vs ID? How quaint. Well... enjoy. Just don't draw the battle lines as Science vs ID, because as I demonstrated, science has its own pet versions of ID. Now back to your fruit salad of ad hominems... you were saying something about a dream?
