Most scientists are liberals who support our opponents.

I'd like to hear you back up that statement with some facts. Most of the scientists I know, including myself, are decidedly not liberal. Most people who think rationally tend to be conservatives and that includes most scientists. When it comes to evolution, the same principle applies. It's logical and supported by evidence. Being a conservative does not imply you are a conservative, although both do share certain principles.

" Most of the scientists I know, including myself, are decidedly not liberal."

I know the antidote to this theory, the much vaunted Fox News Channel. When it comes to science or geography or economics, FNC has presents as many factual errors as CNN, if not more. During Katrina, or the talking points on hydrogen, or global warming, or Bill O'Reilly on oil markets FNC demostrates astoundingly poor scientific knowledge.

ID seems to me to be based on the Bible which is a religious book. Seems to me like comparing the records of Michael Jordon and of Mick Jagger.

I just don't see why it cannot be that ID is the reason and Evolution is the method? Why can't humans have a clear genetic history that goes back to pre-homo sapiens and yet it was God's plan all along.

I mean why can't God be the cosmic que ball. And evolution be Newtonian reactions. I see nothing in Darwinism that even questions God. What I find amazing is any person seeming to understand with great confidence the exact plan of God.

My reply was a laundry list of arguments people might use, not necessarily the ones I personally endorse.
