If they ever bring ID off the fringe tiers and decided to play on the main field of science, they'll be decimated.

Decimation of religion. Is that your goal? If so, why? Forgive me if I don't understand the irrational zealotry of atheism on these threads, but I just can't see the higher calling (as it were) that this attitude serves.

Religion? bobbdobbs refereed to literal creationism, the playground of fringe groups and charlatans.

No reason for religion to be harmed unless that creationists drag it, and the conservaytive movement, down with them

I think it has to do w/ the moral license agency monopoly they have enjoyed (by implication, not outright advocacy). And the 'agents' don't want the competition. So, you are dead right about the tone. They sound just like the butch hair cut NEA types when they talk about home schooling and vouchers...
