ID never offers positive proof . They just attack natural selection. The whole movement is a fraud.

Even Darwin explicitly stated that it was simply a theory; not a proof. Until something better came along. To say that "Evolution" as argued today has been proven scientifically, but ID has not, is to simply attempt to not derail the discussion. ID does not claim anything as proven either, nor seeks to ban the teaching of evlolution. It seeks simply to be given a voice.

On the other hand, the reverse is not true, due primarily to the Gay agenda.

Isn’t that the truth.

You state that with seemingly religious certainty. Would anything constitute "proof" in your eyes?

A fraud that makes conservatives appear as knuckledragging idiots.

Conservatives like Limbaugh, Medved, Coulter aren't doing their believability any favors by supporting this stuff. I love Limbaugh, but he's a scientific illiterate. I think Medved has some connections with the Discovery Institute, so he's swallowed the coolaid in mass quantities. And I thought Coulter was smarter. Maybe she's just pandering to a certain set of conservatives.

Natural selection is not the issue. I haven’t heard anyone make substantive arguments about NS. There are many observed examples of NS.

The issue is whether or not NS could eventually cause new species to develop. There are no observations of new creatures evolving during NS, notwithstanding the gyrations the evolutionists have gone to in order to make some scenarios fit.

That may be true some, or much of the time.

But the clear evidence, as in the movie suggests, is the opposite is true.
