  • Re: Collins is brilliant, but doesn't understand ID

    Intelligent Design was completely misunderstood when it first was reported. It was based on a scientific paper by a microbiologist who discovered, ((by using the tools of measurement of science, (microscopes)), to study a single cell which has never been classified completely as either a plant or an animal.
