Re Socrates #49:

"Can anyone think of ways we can you popularize the ideas that "Organized complexity cannot just spontaneously happen" and that "design can never be an ULTIMATE explanation for organized complexity", as explicitly and clearly expressed as possible? "

How about "Organized complexity begins with a single step." for part 1,

and "Who designed the designer?" for part 2.

I'd wear the T-shirt. ; )

Quotes of Note:

"The patient typically finds himself impelled by some deep, inner conviction that something is true, or right, or virtuous: a conviction that doesn't seem to owe anything to evidence or reason, but which, nevertheless, he feels as totally compelling and convincing. We doctors refer to such a belief as 'faith'."

Richard Dawkins

"The sermon was based on what he claimed was a well-known fact, that there were no Atheists in foxholes. I asked Jack what he thought of the sermon afterwards, and he said, "There's a Chaplain who never visited the front.""

Kurt Vonnegut

"Flowers and elephants are 'for' the same thing as everything else in the living kingdoms, for spreading Duplicate Me programs written in DNA language. Flowers are for spreading copies of instructions for making more flowers. Elephants are for spreading copies of instructions for making more elephants."

Richard Dawkins

"For the first half of geological time our ancestors were bacteria. Most creatures still are bacteria, and each one of our trillions of cells is a colony of bacteria."

Richard Dawkins

"Secularists are often wrongly accused of trying to purge religious ideals from public discourse. We simply want to deny them public sponsorship."
