dhw: In other words, the article which was the key to understanding the argument for design is no such thing because the author thinks he's found a solution and according to you he hasn't, whereas you have.
I am in no position to challenge you or him, but I will gladly take your word for it that Wagner's solution ignores certain key factors. So I will return to the solution of an intelligent, inventive mechanism, to which you have half agreed in principle, and I shan't call it “genotype networks”. We are now back where we started
-DAVID: My point is he has no solution and you have fallen for his verbiage. He has computer simulations, and gets lots of grant money because he is supporting the preferred paradigm of Darwinism. His viewpoint and mine are exactly opposite. My approach is exactly that of the ID folks. He clearly points out the problem and then talks around it. I'm sorry you can't see it. -I haven't fallen for anything! I said that I am in no position to judge, but I'll take your word for it that he ignores the factors you list, so let's go back to the inventive mechanism.. I still don't know why you insisted that I read an article which you said contained “the key to understanding the argument for design”, when the author obviously thinks he's found a solution that dispenses with design. It is you who constantly provide many keys to understanding the argument for design, so why bother with Wagner at all?
