Two Critiques of Intelligent Design
The first: Paul “I have the best opportunity in the world to talk to people about economics but I don’t use it very often because it seems that I’ve forgotten that I’m a respected economist, not just a pundit” Krugman takes on Intelligent Design… sort of. He opens his column with the sentence, “I’d like to nominate Irving Kristol, the neoconservative former editor of The Public Interest, as the father of ‘intelligent design.’” Ten paragraphs later, he comes back around to ID and gives the issue a rather poor four-paragraph treatment.
The second: Flying Spaghetti Monsterism.
My vote: the Flying Spaghetti Monsterists make a better argument than the economist.
