Consistency or logic: Not among the IDists


Joe Carter complains over at Evangelical Outpost:

But as Bill Provine points out in the film [Expelled!], neo-Darwinism is true, which means we don’t have free will.

Brilliant, ain’t it?

Never mind that one of the key themes of the mockumentary movie is that a religious belief in evolution drove Nazis in Germany to choose to take life unjustly, an exercise of free will they harp on in other forums.

Never mind that the claim is wholly ridiculous — Joe is arguing that being free of religious constraints means no one can choose how to act.

Consistency and logic:  Not the domain of intelligent design advocates.
