==Why? To give you text you can pick at? To enable you to ask more questions?

Put up or shut up.

==That’s the technique of the conspiracy theorist. A technique that can easily make sane people doubt the truth.

Given the content and tone of your post, it would appear that it is YOU who have a case of the conspiracies. It is you NOT ME who are implying that their is an ID conspiracy “to make sane people doubt the truth.” In contrast, I have always maintained that the Church of Darwin is quite open about their attempts to prevent ID from becoming mainstream science.

==It’s too bad they can only bring only a handful of scientists over to their cause, despite millions of dollars spent in the effort. That speaks volumes to how bad their case really is.

I would say that 700 scientists is more than just a handful. And those are just the ones who are willing to come out of the shadows and subject themselves to the very real possibility of retribution from the government sanctioned (and funded) Church of Darwin.

There is an "ID conspiracy". One of the earliest organizers is the Discovery Institute, the very people who generated this article in the first place. Their plan was outlined in the "wedge project" (please do read the link), and is nothing less than a conspiracy to replace existing science concepts with faith based philosophy.

I would say that 700 scientists is more than just a handful....

About 1%, to be approximate. Project Steve, an in-your-face parody of the petitions launched by the Discovery Institute gained it's 800th scientist named "Steve" to sign a petition in support for evolution in April. Since variations of the name "Steve" represents about 1% of the population, then evolutions 800 signatories named "Steve" trumps your overall list of 700. So if getting scientists to sign petitions is meaningful, you lose.
