180 Degrees


An earlier generation of natural theologians pointed to God’s
wonderful design in creation in those things that science does currently
understand: the more we understand the more amazed we are! But ID
proponents argue the opposite: ‘design’ refers to that domain of events that,
in their view, science does not currently explain very well. I would suggest
that it is the former not latter position which is closer to the Biblical
understanding of God’s actions in the created order.

and

So the ID understanding of the ‘design argument’ is 180 degrees
different from the traditional design arguments of people like Archdeacon
Paley.
