I'll try to go if I can swing it. (Although. to be honest, Higgins has never impressed me as much as he has everyone else on campus.)Jeffrey Shallithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763971505497961430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20067416.post-87448561592605363202007-09-20T14:09:00.000-04:002007-09-20T14:09:00.000-04:00Both the pastor at Trinity on Sunday, and Dembski ...Both the pastor at Trinity on Sunday, and Dembski on Monday night, called ID a "ground clearing operation". Dembski pretty clearly said that removing "Darwinism" as a viable worldview would allow theistic worldviews to bloom in the space left, and that while he had a preference for what would replace it (Christianity), ID was not linked to any <I>specific</I> theistic worldview.<BR/><BR/>Of course, overthrow "non-theistic science" and we're back in the Dark Ages.

My guess is that as a theist (but non-creationist) he'll have some objective things to say. Unlike, say, the healing-power-of-prayer series you attended and wrote about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
