    Not having time or inclination to settle to a vid. I knew nothing about, I cut and pasted this...

    "Walter J. ReMine, author of The Biotic Message, presents "A Scientific Theory of Intelligent Design," based upon eleven years of research into biological science and the potential of a biotic message purposely planted within life itself by an intelligent Creator.3 Nov 2015"

    He is an electrical engineer and his religiously-motivated assertion is 'God did it'.

    The central idea of his book is something he calls 'Message Theory'.

    Hooby could you define message theory please?

    ReMine says "life is intended to be a message". It is this assertion on which he builds his own baseless message. If he could prove from evidence that life was intended to be a message, then he might have a case. As it is he is without credibility.

    Have you read his book? Or any of it?

    If not how are you a credible source to proclaim him as being “without credibility”?

    Hooby. He is an electrical engineer. How on earth does that qualify him to refute one of the most fundamental facts in all of science?

    He bases his idea on something he calls 'Message Theory' but everybody who has reviewed his book seem unable to explain what that means.

    How would you define Message Theory?

    I haven't invested over two hours to listen to yet another creationist ramble on about complexity therefore god. Maybe you could describe the highlights of his ideas and explain how they are different from the usual Intelligent Design dogma.

    What was it specifically about his presentation that impressed you? It certainly wasn't his charisma!

    ReMine just makes a statement that a thing is true and expects his audience to follow!

    It is like a preacher in a church--no evidence supplied! This is naive.
