[. . .] I find it ironic that darwinians are now backing off of evolution and pointing to a greater intelligence. Instead of pointing to God...they are pointing to intelligence on other planets. Who put that intelligence there? They say darwinianism started there...but no proof whatsoever...just empty faith.

What 'darwinians', other than the ones in your fertile imagination, are point to something else? Try to make sense next time, ok?
Um. How many evolutionists are going ID? I can't imagine the proportion is so enormous as to say all (or even many) of them are as you have suggested.
Other planets? Eh, do scientologists (Don't confuse our cult-atheist-devil-worldly science with scientology, neither has anything to do with the other) even roll with evolution?
WTF and citation needed. No respected scientist is even suggesting such a thing. New agers and conspriacy theorists are, however. There's no proof that there is even intelligent life on other planets. That doesn't mean there isn't, just that we haven't found it yet. This is nothing but fundy BS going into outer space. It's still wrong, and it's still BS. Just because you believe in fairy tales doesn't mean rational people do or should.
And I find it ironic that the fundies don't believe that the 9th commandment applies to them. I have no idea what a "darwinian" is, but I know very few people, who believe in evolution, that believe that it was started by a higher intelligence from another planet outside of the "science fiction" community. I think you have watched too many Dr. Who's" or maybe seen "2001" too often.
First the correct for would be Darwinists.
Second no one is a Darwinist anymore. Darwin was the inspiration, not the be all end all of science.
And if you are talking about Intelligent Design then you should take this up with your own people. We want nothing to do with it.
That made so little sense that chicken bob was pleasuring himself with a jar of pasta sauce so he bought a motorcycle and went skydiving. After that, he bought a rifle and ate some mud. To top it off he recruited batman, captain kirk, james bond and Mcguyver to work with the sea shepherd.
Ironically, when ID proponents are called on their 'theory' being nothing but creationism dressed in scienciness, they often argue that they do not specify who the intelligent designer was, and in perhaps it could be aliens.
Take for instance, here's Philip Johnson, co-founder of the Discovery Institute and author of Darwin on Trial :
Johnson says he is an ordinary Christian who regularly attends the First Congregational Church in Berkeley. But when pressed, he avoids answering pointed questions, including his views on just who the intelligent designer is.
"It certainly could be God, a supernatural creature, but in principle it could be space aliens of high intelligence who did the designing," he says.

Yes, webdog, I quite agree with you. Intelligent Design is nothing other than "just empty faith".
There are no darwinians. Stop making up labels to put on people you don't like. We are not evolutionists, darwinians, or darwinists.
Also, we don't think aliens put life here. The proposition is rather laughable. Also, we don't point to a higher intelligence until there is a hell of a lot of proof that said intelligence exists, is capable of creating life from non-life, has actually done so, and has done so on earth.
First you argue that the theory of evolution was thought up specifically to disprove an intelligent designer, then you turn around and argue that it's trying to prove the wrong designer.
Also 'pointing to God' cannot qualify as a scientific theory (unless it's supported by evidence).
How does my toaster work? God heats the bread up.
Why does a car stop when it runs out of fuel? It's a sin to drive without fuel, so God stops the car.
How do planes fly? God sends out invisible angels to carry them.
[I find it ironic that darwinians are now backing off of evolution and pointing to a greater intelligence.]
Who, specifically, is "backing off of" evolution?
[Instead of pointing to God...they are pointing to intelligence on other planets.]
Nobody's "pointing to" anything. We're looking for signs of life, intelligent or otherwise, elsewhere in the universe.
[Who put that intelligence there?]
Your question presupposes that the intelligence was put there.
A better question to ask would be "How did that intelligence get there?"
[They say darwinianism started there...]
WHO says such?
[but no proof whatsoever...just empty faith.]
NOW you're crowing about proof?
Who are these Darwinians? And where, exactly, is this place Darwin they must come from? (Darwinists i've heard off)
Maybe Darwin is the planet. That would make sense then...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
