Description

Intelligent Design creationism faults evolutionary biology for being ``naturalistic,'' but ID is in its own strange way just as naturalistic. Like the man who can't find his car-keys at night and looks for them under a street-light, though he last saw the keys someplace else, intelligent design creationism seeks acts of God within the gaps in our scientific knowledge. Creation takes the goodness of this world on faith, but Creationism works to get out of the challenge of the doctrine of creation, not to embrace it.
