You refuse to see the evidence in any other light except that which would bolster your theory. Hardly a scientific approach.

That's just backwards.

All new evidence is examined critically, even if it seems to reaffirm previous discoveries. That's what publishing is all about. That's what peer review is all about. That's the scientific method. That's also why, whenever somebody tries to sneak falsified evidence through, it gets caught and exposed. By scientists.

You'll need some evidence for this bizarre conspiracy theory. I don't think that you'll have any more luck with that than finding evidence for an intelligent designer.

ID by its very nature requires that we reject all the evidence we find. ID requires that we deny the vast evidence of the natural world in favor of supernatural explanations. That's why it's profoundly unscientific.

"ID by its very nature requires that we reject all the evidence we find."

If that's your belief, you probably don't know much about what they are even arguing about in Dover. Some might say the theory of evolution makes the evidence fit the theory.
