Cogent Arguments Against “Intelligent Design”

(Links below are to typical examples of business as usual, demonstrating, though not proving, that there are some serious, serious issues with “intelligent design”… Far too many examples to cite more than one per “argument”)

Congress

The White House

CBSNBCABCCNNNYTWaPoReutersAP, etc.

The State Department (h.t. Jerry Pournelle)

I could go on, but perhaps you get the drift: a “design” that could result in its creations carefully and with stupidity aforethought devising ways to commit serial monumentally stupid acts may not be all that “intelligent” to begin with.

Then again, all of these are arguments against both classical and neo Darwinism: how can the idiots who populate these organizations (and the citizens who give them the power to be so monumentally stupid) have evolved from lower life forms?

There must be another answer…
