And so they pretended that Darwinism was a more complete explanation as it was presented than it ever was.

There are several different things that are wrong with it. The key one that I think is causing folks in intelligent design circles to begin to catch up is that the story we tell about how it is that mutation results in morphological change is incorrect.

This is a very hard thing to convey, and I want to point out that if the explanation for creatures is Darwinian, that does not depend on anybody understanding it, and it does not depend on anybody being able to phrase it in a way that it's intuitive. Okay? I think I could probably do a decent job on those fronts, but if you happened onto the

A hundred million years ago, you would have found lots of animals running around, lots of plants growing. You would have recognized where you were and more or less what was going on. There's not a single creature on the planet that would have any idea what an abstract thought was. There would be no creature that had any inkling that there was even a question about where all this had come from.

And Darwinism would still be the answer. So somehow, whether Darwinism is the answer does not depend on anybody knowing it or being able to explain it. Here's the problem. Let's say that we went into the parking lot, and in one parking space there's an excavator, and in the next parking space over is a Maserati.

Now let's say we took those two machines and we tore them apart so that we just had a stack of the compounds that they were made out of, right? The rubber, the vinyl, the various metals, all that stuff. There would be differences between the excavator and the Maserati, right? They would just be made of some different stuff. And then there'd be a lot of stuff that they had in common.

Now, you could look at the differences in the materials that they're made out of, and you could say, well, the excavator is really good at, you know, lifting materials and moving them around, and the Maserati is really good at going fast on a paved surface. And those differences are due to the differences in materials that they're made out of. That would be wrong.
