ID Creationism and Islamic Creationism Converge


Creationism mixed with Holocaust denial. Why am I not surprised.
 
“Intelligent design” creationist Denyse O’Leary interviews Islamic creationist Adnan Oktar (aka Harun Yahya); bug-eyed insanity ensues: Interview with Turkish Darwin doubter Adnan Oktar.
 
O’Leary calls Oktar’s book The Evolution Deceit: “the most succinct and comprehensive of the critiques of overblown claims for Darwinian evolution that I have ever read.”
 
 
Other books by Adnan Oktar include Holocaust Deception and Global Freemasonry.
No word from O’Leary on whether she also considers those works “succinct and comprehensive.”

Melanie Phillips on 'Intelligent Design'

This is sad.

Melanie Phillips Takes a Wrong Turn on 'Intelligent Design' Creationism

Sci/Tech Sun, May 3, 2009 at 2:11:56 pm PDT

Melanie Phillips has done good work exposing the danger of Islamic militancy in Britain, and I’ve linked many of her articles on the subject here at LGF. She’s also taken a principled stand against Eurofascist groups such as the BNP, who try to gain legitimacy by claiming to be “anti-jihad.”

But she’s simply wrong in this article. Way wrong: Creating An Insult To Intelligence.

She claims that “intelligent design” is: 1) based on science, not religion, and 2) not related to creationism.

Wrong, and wrong again.
