This is despite the fact that in the ten years since my book was published, many scientific organizations, such as the National Academy of Sciences and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, have issued urgent appeals to their membership to do everything they can to fend off the idea that life provides evidence of intelligent design.
Padahal, sejak buku saya diterbitkan sepuluh tahun yang lalu, banyak organisasi sains, seperti Lembaga Sains Nasional dan Asosiasi Pengembangan Sains Amerika, telah mendesak para anggotanya untuk berupaya sebisa - bisanya menangkis gagasan bahwa kehidupan membuktikan adanya rancangan hasil kecerdasan.
