W7 - B2 - CHAPTER 3
ARGUMENT FOR DESIGN - MODERN VERSIONS - PROBLEM OF EVIL
Timothy Chappell
3.2- FIRST VERSION :
BEHE & INTELLIGENT DESIGN
(fine-tuning for world itself to start)
HIS ARGUMENT
THERE ARE
PARTICULAR KINDS
OF "IRREDUCTIBLE COMPLEXITY" THAT
COULDN'T HAVE EVOLVED THRU
NATURAL SELECTION
, p.87
MANY MOLECULAR SYSTEMS
IN CELL REQUIRE MULTIPLE
COMPONENTS TO FUNCTION
FONCTION APPEARS ONLY
WHEN SYSTEM IS COMPLETE
SO DIFFICULT TO
EXPLAIN WITH EVOLUTION THEORY
eg
AN EYE
, p.87
HAS OBVIOUS SURVIVAL VALUE &
EXTREMELY UNLIKELY
TO APPEAR FULLY FORMED
WITH JUST 1 STEP MUTATION
NEED EACH COMPONENT
PRODUCED ONE AT A TIME
BUT HOW COULD
1/2 AN EYE HAVE
SURVIVAL VALUE FOR
GEENRATIONS UNTIL
FULLY FORMED?
EVOLUTION
THEORY, p.87
TRAITS MORE USEFUL
FOR SURVIVAL WILL BE
PASSED ON TO FUTURE
GENERATIONS
BUT GENETIC MUTATION
MODIFIES TRAITS GRADUALLY
CRITICISM, p.89
1- BECAUSE EVOLUTIONARY
THEORY CANNOT EXPLAIN IT DOESNT MEAN
SCIENCE
CANNOT; MAY BE OTHER THEORIES
YES BUT TO DATE THESE
THEORIES = UNKNOWN; SO CANT
DISCUSS THEM
2- JUST BECAUSE SCIENCE CANNOT
EXPLAIN IT, DOESNT MEAN INTELLIGENT
DESIGN DOES EXPLAIN IT; COULD BE CHANCE OR SELF-ORGANISATION
INTELLIGENCE DESIGN IS
MORE PROBABLE
3- EVEN IF THERE IS INTELLIGENT
DESIGN, WHY WOULD IT BE GOD?
NEVER SAID IT WAS;
JUST A POSSIBILITY
4- BECAUSE SCIENCE HASN'T EXPLAINED
IT YET DOESNT MEAN IT NEVER WILL;
JUST MEAN NEEDS FURTHER RESEARCH
ACTUALLY HAS BEEN
AXPLAINED BY DVPM IN
EVOLUTIONARY THEORY, p.90
SCIENCE CAN NOW
EXPLAIN EVOLUTION OF
THE EYE, WHICH HAS ADVANTAGE
AT EACH STEP, p.91
IF "IRREDUCTIBLE COMPLEXITY"
MEANSNO EVOLUTIONARY ADVANTAGE,
RCHCH FOUND THAT THERE IS NO
IRRED. COMPLEXITY, p.91
BUT STILL NEED TO WAIT
FOR MORE RCHCH, p.91
