So RWP and others who derive their income from "producing science results" have more to loose than just a debate.

That's 'lose'. My current project is building detectors for terrorist explosives. Explain to me how evolution impinges that? (Other than the fact the Islamic lunatics have the same antiscientific creationist beliefs as Christian fundamentalists. Isn't it interesting that if we lost all the creationists in the world, there wouldn't be a problem with Islamic terrorism either?)

So, can I interest you in my Orbital Space Vacuum? We just use the vacuum of space to suck all the Creationists to an early meeting with their Creator and leave the world much better for it.

Damn good! Hope it works very well and makes you a fortune, as well as famous.

But being a scientist, you'll probably get a very good device--but no fame and fortune.

You are gonna have a real hard time. Explosives are explosives.

Yes, but on the other hand, it would ruin the mobile home industry in the US. There are always tradeoffs.

A bandit with a red shirt robbed a bank therefore, if all red shirts are destroyed there will be no more bank robberies.

hopefully you are more adept at the design of terrorist explosive detectors than analogies.
