ResearchID.org:Open Source Intelligent Design
From ResearchID.org
The persona that ResearchID.org embodies can be summed up in 4 words: Open Source Intelligent Design. Let's break it down...
Contents |
Open
A cooperative effort by many people is the secret to the success of a wiki.
Source
You are the most important part of ResearchID.org! The source of the power of a wiki is the participants. Every single person is critical to the growth of the project.
Intelligent
Ideally, we want thoughtful and creative contributions to be fostered!
Design
Intentional and focused effort will keep our community on the right track.
open source
While not functioning exactly like Open Source projects, ResearchID.org will function very similarly to them. This wiki will be like an Open Source project, because many people will contribute to the effort, there will be a review of the parts of the project (as pages are edited and refined), and there will be a type of 'final product' (a research article), and the effort will continue and develop.
open ended
Conclusions are not decided before a discussion begins. This is standard operating procedure for participation at ResearchID.org.
ResearchID.org does not emphasize or encourage a specific view on the following topics:
- value of specific research philosophies
(unless it necessarily denies that design detection is possible)
- value of evolutionary explanations
(unless they are unsupported by evidence)
- social or political views
- views of religion or non-religion
ResearchID.org is a forum for open discussion and all views will have equal access, so long as they are logical, coherent, non-offensive, ethical, and further the mission of ResearchID.org.
