God exists regardless of intellectual fashion. I've been trying to make clear that one can be a rational respecter of science and still devoutly believe in Him and in the miracles of the Bible.

And I would agree with you. I would also counter and say that one can be a devout Christian, believe in the miracles of the Bible, and be a very successful scientist with the theory of evolution planted firmly in his head. To say otherwise is claiming to know your faith, your universe, and your God (remember the dot and the circle, exmarine) a little too well. Looking at the separate branches of the Christian faith already indicates that the Bible is varied in its interpretation.

That describes Michael Behe. He accepts a lot tenets of evolution.

Back to work, now.
