Are you aware that Dr. Simon Conway Morris has taken the position that intelligent design is not science?
A. I am not aware of that. But again I would like to, you know, for the record, state, in his paper, the problem of convergence in evolution, the channeling, in his mind, brings up the question of teleology, directly quoted from his paper, and he cites two authors that have been involved in intelligent design. So I think he’s looking at the possibility, you know, as a scientist and looking at the claims. Q. You’re aware that in the paper you’re referring to, Dr. Conway Morris said that, if, with the underline on it, if evolution is in some sense channeled, then this reopens the controversial prospect of teleology? A. Correct.
