Thanks for the input everyone!

Here's one that accidentally got left off the list:
  • The fact that the laws of the universe are perfect for life is evidence for a Designer. The fact that the laws of the universe can�t produce life is evidence for a Designer.

It's one of my favorites.

I'm hoping to get this put up at http://www.talkdesign.org/ or somewhere similar.

How about this one:

--The fact that all living things are different and there are no transitional fossils is evidence of a designer. The fact that all living things share a majority of their DNA and a commonality of major physical structures is evidence of a designer.

Yeah, that's good! I'll definitely work that into the next revision, though probably worded differently. So the fact that living things are simlilar points to a common designer, but the fact that things are different points to the designer's creativity. WTF?

P.S. Anyone who has any suggestions for additions, please don't hesitate to post them!

Maybe you could change "IDists" to "IDiots"

Nah. That would just give them one more excuse to cry foul, and point out how the mean ole Darwinists are picking on them. While I sometimes call them IDiots in private correspondance, if I'm irritated, I never do that on open forums. It's best for us to take the high road.

-We have a few biologists who reject evolution so it must be wrong. The tens of thousands of biologists who don't reject it are obviously biased or lying.
