Meyer doesn't mention the negative side of the Flew story. Flew, never a biologist, investigated further and became convinced he'd been had. He recanted his recantation.

I can't believe Meyer doesn't know that, but he doesn't mention it. Very like a creationist, I'd say.

Why does it matter what Flew or Darwin "believed" anyway? Science is not about who believes something. It's about who can prove something. Why would scientists be interested in someone's beliefs? Either there is evidence or there isn't.

He recanted his recantation.

Actually, he's still a Deist. He still likes anthropic principle arguments. He's no longer impressed with arguments from biological complexity.

He recanted his recantation.

Apparently Flew is still a believer in God. In the most recent interview, he restated his deism, with the usual provisos that his God is not the God of any of the revealed religions. A deist is by definition someone who believes that God created but does not intervene in the world. If this is not ID, I don't know what is. Therefore, Stephen Meyer is not untruthful in this sense.
