Thats' true. And also remember ID isn't a theory, it's a religion.

An argument can also be made that so is science

Let's not get too careless when it comes to entropy, it's a fundamental part of a physical law. And while in science a law outranks a theory, a theory is something pretty significant in its own right and can be taken as fact, different from the meaning of the word in everyday usage.

Kaneman is right, though, in that eventually the matter in the universe will become useless. It'll either be heavy elements, which can't form suns and all that stuff, or it'll be light elements too dispersed to get pulled towards each other to form suns and all of that stuff. But I don't think any of that is significant in the debate about abiogenesis and evolution...



Questions are a burden to others. Answers are prison for oneself.

Kaneman,

Science requires testing, religion forbids it. The two are distinctly different.

Just applies to evolution, but can easily be used to cover everything else.

Disagree, I think there are many religious scholars that study and test religion

It's like the 'law' of gravity which people still treat as a theory, except entropy is far less quantified.

"eventually the matter in the universe will become useless."
Only if it all goes through the maw of an active sun. And no one knows quite what happens to the stuff which goes into a black hole.

They may look into the history of the religion but faith is required for the tenets.
