"That's like saying the feminists and the enviros are two different groups. But the result is the same, those guys voted for Kerry and the IDers and creationists both have dieties to push."

C'mon. You know that isn't a good analogy. Besides, what my point was is that IDers are not "creationists in disguise" as you and others have implied or directly stated.

If you want to put down Iders, then do it based upon what they are actually proposing (which I'm not sure of myself), not on a straw man fallacy that equates them with special creationists like myself that hold to a literal view of Genesis from a Conservative Evangelical Christian perspective. In all kindness, I think you are better than that.

The distiquishing mark of both IDers and creationists is that their goal seems to be the destruction of Evolution theory, not in advancing their own. That and the fact they are both basing their ideas on their belief in a diety, rather than on the examination of the evidence in a positive manner. Their actions are negative (tearing down Evolution) rather than positive (promoting their discoveries).

And neither groups seem inclined to defend their own beliefs, only to attack. I've have posted critiques on Genesis 1 and 2 on two crevo threads now, with not a single reply to defend.
