That's what was reported.

From a single individual, unless you can show more.

Compromise means compromise. It doesn't mean you get it all your way or take your toys home in a hissy fit.

True, but when you are not involved in the compromise process, you don't have to accept the resulting compromise unless you agreed to accept any outcome. Then, to maintain integrity, you would have to bend over and take it when the "compromise" was fecally endowed.

It's in the article.

The word is in the article, but not used by Dembski or his co-worker. Search the article for yourself.

So, Obama was a paid employee of the CPA. That is relevant. In the instance we are discussing "Creationism Connection" was also mentioned as a "such as". What is Dembski's previous association with them? I told you that the Center's association with the Discovery Institute was open knowledge. It was a sponsor of the conference held there. I did not say that there was no association. I said the comment about links was a valid answer without denying association. It denied giving permission for connection in relation to the internet.

From a single individual in your case, unless you can show more. But given that the faculty was so mad, I'd bet on mine. There are other comments about people being surprised, knowing about it only after the web site came up. That would also indicate lack of consultation.

Neither was the other side, but they accepted it. The compromise was made by an independent outside commission (and not all scientiests) to ensure fairness. I think "Does not play well with others" accurately describes Dembski when dealing with real scientists. He apparently gets along fine with theologians. That's pretty telling.

So, Obama was a paid employee of the CPA.

Reasonable, given his positions on the issues. :)

It wasn't by Dembski. Read the article.

It denied giving permission for connection in relation to the internet.

Exactly. And it supposedly denied permission to the Discovery Institute. Doesn't compute.
