That’s my point. You’re saying that a leading proponent of ID claims that “ID was dead.” That doesn’t make sense. A “proponent” advocates for something; he doesn’t say it’s dead and worthless.
Coldwater apparently thinks that Behe is the authority on everythign- Behe has his opinions, and he is not against ID but apparently is against hte idea of creation and thinks that evolution can produce intelligent design, yet he offers no proof of such, and just has an opinion on the matter. The fact that Behe opinied on the matter in a manner favorable to Coldwater’s own opinion is apparently enough to convince coldwater that ID must be dead based on nothing more than one man’s opinion.
No. He said "THE ID" was most probably dead since we have no evidence of "THE ID" interacting in man's evolution in the last few hundred million years.
