Intelligent Design

Creationism, especially in its pseudoscience manifestation, Intelligent Design, has failed to make any significant progress in its campaign to be adopted by mainstream biomedical scientists. Instead, it is almost universally condemned and rejected by scientific bodies througout the developed world. It makes no predictions and cannot be tested therefore it is usless as a science and has still not generated a single peer-reviewed paper in any mainstream science journal.. The only signifcant success of the Discovery Institutes 'Wedge' Strategy, launched in 1991 and now hopelessly behind ...

As Howard Gardner argues in the groundbreaking classic Frames of Mind, to limit our understanding of intelligence to “book smarts” misses much of what makes human beings amazing. Someone who plays an instrument well is exhibiting intelligence. So, too, someone who knows how to do physical comedy—is their mastery of their movements and the space around them not brilliant? And to have a profound knowledge of their own self, their relationships with others, and relationships between others, too, is to show great intelligence as well.

Most organizations and individuals work in the context of annual goals and plans; a 12-month execution cycle. Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your "year" to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn't enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now. In the end more of the important stuff gets done and the impact on results is profound.

Evolutionary arms races are the basis for co-evolutionary cooperation and ecosystems and are fundamental to biology and biodiversity, yet they cannot logically be described as intelligently designed because competing against yourself in an arms race is not an act of intelligence nor of design. Arms races account for the needless complexity and prolific waste seen in nature when you look beneath the superficial resemblamce of design and are responsible for the major advances in evolution, from the evolution of eukaryote cells, the evolution of multicellularity, the evolution of coral reefs, ...

At the very beginning of the novel the protagonist dies. His soul starts its journey to the afterlife, but unexpectedly, he wakes up in someone else’s body—and on another planet! Soon it turns out that he has unwillingly become the subject of a scientific experiment carried out by the inhabitants of that planet. They look exactly like people from Earth: the only difference is that they are much smarter.

The Anthropic Simulation Hypothesis In this concise and thought-provoking thesis, Zito introduces a bold new thought experiment exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence, simulated realities, and intelligent design. The hypothesis asks: if humans create advanced, sentient AI civilizations within simulations, and those civilizations develop religious beliefs, would this provide not only empirical evidence of intelligent design within their reality—but also reinforce the plausibility of intelligent design in our own? By examining scenarios where these simulated beings create ...

"Intelligent Designer: Evolution for Politicians" is a book that brings badly needed help for a nation in desperate need of science literacy in high places. The litmus test for scientific literacy in public office is provided by the word "evolution," which rarely, if ever, fails to reveal an elected official's understanding of the way science operates, our evidence for what the Earth is really like, and even the meaning of the word "theory." If your elected official has a Kindle, this book will prevent him or her from appearing completely ignorant on issues ranging from science education to...

“A Witness of creation, if there had been one conscious but uninstructed, would only have seen appearing out of a vast abyss of an apparent non­existence an Energy busy with the creation of Matter, a material world and material objects, organizing the infinity of the Inconscient into the scheme of a boundless universe or a system of countless universes that stretched around him into Space without any certain end or limit, a tireless creation of nebulae and star-clusters and suns and planets, existing only for itself, without a sense in it, empty of cause and purpose.” – Sri Aurobindo...
