The argument for intelligent design basically depends on saying, 'You haven't answered every question with evolution,'... Well, guess what? Science can't answer every question.

By no definition of any modern scientist is intelligent design science, and it's a waste of our students' time to subject them to it.

Intelligent design, unlike creationism, is a science in its own right and can stand on its own feet.

'Intelligent Design,' the relabeled, repackaged form of American creationism, has always had a problem. It just can't seem to produce any evidence.

I don't want to be too harsh, but there's very little evidence for 'intelligent design' or any sort of creator.

But the need for conflict to expose prejudice and unclear reasoning, which is deeply embedded in my philosophy of science, has its origin in these debates.

How can you look at the Texas legislature and still believe in intelligent design?

The strongest arguments prove nothing so long as the conclusions are not verified by experience. Experimental science is the queen of sciences and the goal of all speculation.

We now witness the constructive work on a foundation that will endure through the ages. That foundation is the god of science - revealed to us in terms that will harmonize with our intelligence.
