Origin questions are forensic questions‚ and thus require the use of the forensic science principles we already have discussed. In fact‚ for Darwinists to rule out Intelligent Design from the realm of science‚ in addition to ruling out themselves they would

evolution and creationism when two examples are given very close to each other. The authors’ appeal to logos is their most powerful tool in convincing their audience. They make many great points about why evolution should stand apart from intelligent design. Overall‚ Dawkins and Coyne were effective at persuading the audience in their favor.

The argument from design is as follows: “Watches‚ houses‚ ships‚ machines and so on all exhibit design‚ and are planned and produced by intelligent beings. The universe exhibits design.
