The Intelligent Design Debate and the Temptation of Scientism (Hardback) book cover By Erkki Vesa Rope Kojonen  Here: The controversy over Intelligent Design (ID) has now continued for over two decades, with no signs of ending.

Rather, the philosophical and theological nature of such questions should be openly acknowledged. More.
