I think you will see that Dr. Paul Chien isn't an advocate of pretzel science.

Governing Goals

To defeat scientific materialism and its destructive moral, cultural and political legacies.
To replace materialistic explanations with the theistic understanding that nature and hurnan beings are created by God.
Five Year Goals

To see intelligent design theory as an accepted alternative in the sciences and scientific research being done from the perspective of design theory.

To see the beginning of the influence of design theory in spheres other than natural science.

To see major new debates in education, life issues, legal and personal responsibility pushed to the front of the national agenda.

Twenty Year Goals

To see intelligent design theory as the dominant perspective in science.

To see design theory application in specific fields, including molecular biology, biochemistry, paleontology, physics and cosmology in the natural sciences, psychology, ethics, politics, theology and philosophy in the humanities; to see its innuence in the fine arts.

To see design theory permeate our religious, cultural, moral and political life.

From The Wedge Strategy:

THE WEDGE PROJECTS

Phase I. Scientific Research, Writing & Publication

Anyone whose goal is to promulgate "a science consonant with Christian and theistic convictions" is not doing real science. If a group with those goals ever comes to power I can see a lot of the sciences we do now being "de-emphasized." Biologists and paleontologists would be among the first to be "re-educated."

Even what I do, western US archaeology, would be subject to censorship because we consistently fail to find any evidence of a global flood, and we have documented continuity across the last 12,000 years or so--in other words, no flood, no young earth.

Given free rein that is what I see "a science consonant with Christian and theistic convictions" leading to. Don't believe me? You can see the beginnings of all of this right now, with the attempted censorship of evolution in schools.
