A couple of quotations

From Dean Radin's book, "Entangled Minds" (2006): "All things by immortal power, Near and Far Hiddenly To each other linked are, That thou canst not stir a flower Without troubling of a star"<blockquote></blockquote> From William Blake: "To see the world in a grain of sand And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand And eternity in an hour."

In his 1983 book The Intelligent Universe, astronomer Fred Hoyle wrote the following infamous passage:

"A junkyard contains all the bits and pieces of a Boeing 747, dismembered and in disarray. A whirlwind happens to blow through the yard. What is the chance that after its passage a fully assembled 747, ready to fly, will be found standing there? So small as to be negligible, even if a tornado were to blow through enough junkyards to fill the whole Universe." (p.19)

This argument above, however specious, is sometimes used by those who believe in Intelligent Design versus Evolution. Those who believe in Intelligent Design say there is more evidence to believe the world is flat than there is real scientific evidence to support the evolutionary theory.

Those who believe in Intelligent Design believe the world is so ordered and so complex that it can only be the work of an Intelligent Being.

Isn't that terribly upsetting? If that is the truth, then I can do without the truth, thank you very much.

Here's another quotation from Ann Coulter for what it is worth:

"Throw in enough words like imagine, perhaps, and might have -- and you've got yourself a scientific theory!

How about this: Imagine a giant raccoon passed gas and perhaps the resulting gas might have created the vast variety of life we see on Earth. And if you don't accept the giant raccoon flatulence theory for the origin of life, you must be a fundamentalist Christian nut who believes the Earth is flat. That's basically how the argument for evolution goes
