M.C. Like Stan says, thanks to Donal for clearing that up.
For those interested in a refutation of Intelligent Design that is,
um, somewhat more systematic, I recommend Eric Schneider and Dorion
Sagan's Into the Cool : Energy flow, thermodynamics, and life,
Chicago : U. of Chicago Press, 2005. Following the biologist Stuart
Kaufmann (Investigations, OUP 2002), they understand life as a
self-organizing system that arises spontaneously in order to reduce
gradients. See http://www.intothecool.com/ and especially the authors'
blog at http://www.intothecool.com/blog/.
Best, Mike.
