More evidence of intelligent design

I would add this article giving more evidence of an intelligent designer at work. Martyp 11:05, 30 January 2011 (EST)

[1] is a logical fallacy

The reference is an argument from ignorance. It effectively posits that since there is no evidence against intelligent design, it must be true. Celigans 03:03, 10 April 2011 (EDT)

Atheism is also a logical fallacy; atheists think since there is no evidence against atheism that it must be true. Keyword is think; they think there is no evidence against it. DMorris 07:31, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
What part of the reference says that?
  • "Dembski and Wells argue calmly and convincingly that intelligent design theory is empirically testable (in spite of Darwinists' shrill protests to the contrary) by indicating precisely what it would take to refute the theory, namely a clear demonstration that systems exhibiting irreducible complexity with specified complexity can in fact arise spontaneously by purely material processes"
I do not see how indicating precisely what it would take to refute the theory is an argument from ignorance. Please explain. --Ed Poor Talk 14:18, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
