Whilst recognizing the complexity of some of the arguments a little closer to the axis of the conversation, it dawned on me tonight why I have never really cared for the qualm that Intelligent Design is merely dressed up Creationism: religious in nature.
It's called a genetic fallacy, guys. On my side of things, I don't care if Nietzsche, Sartre, Dawkins, Darwin, Satan, and Stalin travel in time to conspire to formulate an argument against the existence of God, or contra the fine tuning of the universe or the apparent design in biology. I care about the content of the argument.
