  • The Design Argument
    The design argument The different versions of the cosmological argument we discussed over the last few weeks were arguments for the existence of God based on extremely abstract and general features of the universe, such as the fact that some things come into existence, and that there are some contingent things. The argument we’ll be discussing today is not like this. The basic idea of the argument is that if we pay close attention to the details of the universe in which we live, we’ll be able to see that that universe must have been created by an intelligent designer. This design argument, or, as its sometimes called, the teleological argument, has probably been the most influential argument for the existence of God throughout most of history. You will by now not be surprised that a version of the teleological argument can be found in the writings of Thomas Aquinas. You will by now not be surprised that a version of the teleological argument can be found in the writings of Thomas Aquinas. Aquinas is noting that things we observe in nature, like plants and animals, typically act in ways which are advantageous to themselves. Think, for example, of the way that many plants grow in the direction of light. Clearly, as Aquinas says, plants don’t do this because they know where the light is; as he says, they “lack knowledge.” But then how do they manage this? What does explain the fact that plants grow in the direction of light, if not knowledge? Aquinas’ answer to this question is that they must be “directed to their end” -- i.e., designed to be such as to grow toward the light -- by God.

  • Intelligent Design the Relationship of Economic Theory to Experiments
    Intelligent Design The Relationship of Economic Theory to Experiments: Treatment driven Experiments Muriel Niederle Stanford University and NBER August 13, 2010 When I interact with colleagues and friends who are venturing into experimental economics, either as they prepare for their own experiment, or aim for a critical view of experiments run by others, I often hear the question: “What is a good experiment?” My first reaction is to answer my empirically minded colleagues “Well, let me ask you: What is a good regression?” Clearly a good experiment (or regression) is one that allows testing for the main effect while controlling for other plausible alternatives. This helps ensure that the original hypothesis is reached for the right reasons and the initial theory is not wrongly confirmed. However, there is an aspect of experimental design that is probably closer connected to theory than empirical work: As designers, we are responsible for the environment in which the data are generated. As such a good experimental design also needs to fulfill requirements one may impose on good theory papers: The environment should be such that it is easy to see what drives the result, and as simple as possible to make the point. The design has to provide a good environment for studying the questions at hand. Furthermore, ideally, the design (just like good theory) should be such that it seems plausible that the results could serve as prediction for behavior in other environments. The design of experiments has some interplay with empirical methods as a good experimental design foreshadows how the data to be generated can be analyzed.

  • Devious Distortions- Durston Or Myers
    Devious Distortions: Durston or Myers? or Estimating the Probability of Functional Biological Proteins Kirk Durston, Ph.D. Biophysics A few days after his 2009 debate with me on the existence of God, well-known atheist, PZ Myers, posted a blog with the title, ‘Durston’s Devious Distortions’, in which he attempted to address my claim that amino acid sequences coding for biological protein families have an astonishingly low probability … so low that they definitively falsify the hypothesis that biological proteins could have been assembled via an evolutionary process. For his resource material, Myers referred to an online video of a lecture I gave at the University of Edinburgh about a year earlier. That video was for a general, interdisciplinary audience and did not actually discuss how the probabilities of biological proteins are calculated. Given this absence of information, Myers made some assumptions as to how I calculate protein probabilities. It appears that he did not check his own numbers by plugging them back into the relevant equation to see if they gave the results I had obtained. Those who tried to use Myers’ numbers found that they were incorrect, not yielding anything close to the results for SecY or RecA that I had published in the literature and shown in the video. Unfortunately, some atheists who follow Myers, unquestioningly accepted his explanation without checking his numbers, thus spreading Myers’ confusion. In reality, the probabilities of biological proteins were calculated using a two-step procedure. The first step was to calculate the functional complexity required to code for a particular protein using a method I had published in 2007.[1] That paper was referenced in the video in a slide titled, ‘Case 3: Average protein’ so that inquiring minds could obtain further details.

The most famous of the design argu- ments is Paley’s watchmaker illustration from his writings of the early 19th century. Interest in the concept of design in nature has recently had a resurgence and is often termed the Intelligent Design movement. Significant is the work of Michael Behe on biochemical systems.

ARTICLES ESTABLISHING RELIGIOUS IDEAS: EVOLUTION, CREATIONISM, AND INTELLIGENT DESIGN KENT GREENAWALT* I. INTRODUCTION The enduring conflict between evolutionary theorists and creationists has focused on America's public schools. If these schools had no need to teach about the origins of life, each side might content itself with promoting its favored worldview and declaring its opponents narrow-minded and dogmatic. But edu- cators have to decide what to teach, and because the Supreme Court has declared that public schools may not teach religious propositions as true, the First Amendment is crucially implicated. On close examination, many of the controversial constitu- tional issues turn out to be relatively straightforward, but others, posed mainly by the way schools teach evolution and by what they say about "intelligent design" theory, push us to deep questions about the nature of science courses and what counts as teaching religious propositions.
