Your scorn of Behe just makes you look even sillier.
How long before you find some reason to hold your newest hero Arlo Moehlenpah in contempt?

Apparently you haven't read THE EDGE OF EVOLUTION
Quote:
The crucial passage in “The Edge of Evolution” is this: “By far the most critical aspect of Darwin’s multifaceted theory is the role of random mutation. Almost all of what is novel and important in Darwinian thought is concentrated in this third concept.”
What a bizarre thing to say! Leave aside the history: unacquainted with genetics, Darwin set no store by randomness. New variants might arise at random, or they might be acquired characteristics induced by food, for all Darwin knew. Far more important for Darwin was the nonrandom process whereby some survived but others perished

Behe: Once I read Denton's book I was amazed that people believed in evolution when there was this clear argument against it.
