An Article on Intelligent Design

This is by far one of the best articles I have ever read on "Intelligent Design." It's by Jerry Coyne, a professor of Ecology and Evolution at the University of Chicago and appeared in the August 2005 edition of The New Republic. Even someone who is Biology Illiterate (like me!) can easily follow Professor Coyne's discussion.

One statement in the article I found to be the most delicious quote I've seen in a long, long, time.

“If the history of science shows us anything, it is that we get nowhere by labeling our ignorance ‘God.’” - Jerry Coyne, “The New Republic”, August 2005
