==Desperation of evolutionist? Me thinks the Creationists are desperate.

You wouldn't know it by this article. Everywhere I look, evolutionist atheologians are grasping at straws to defend the crumbling Temple of Darwin, while Creationists and ID scientists beat them over the head with reality (and they're having fun doing it). That's the opposite of desperation in my book.

A theory in crisis since 1859. I wonder if Dembski will pay off on his current bet when he loses ... again.

I don’t know, I’ve yet to see a single contribution by Creationists and ID people to science. What have those people done to strengthen American economy? Have they developed a single drug? Have they built a shuttle? Have they managed to produce a single scientific breakthrough?

The answer is an emphatic No.

By giving these ID people power we’re robbing our nation of scientific knowledge and ceding the next century to China and Europe.

I don’t understand how Creationism got tangled up with Conservatism. As a conservative I’m a strong proponent of science - it’s what enabled us to beat the Nazis, the Japanese, the Soviets and now Terrorists. We are a superpower because our instruments are more sophisticated. And we are sophisticated because we value the scientific method.

Intelligent Design is the enemy of science and therefore detrimental to the growth of our nation as we try to maintain our competitive edge in this century.

Belief in God and belief in evolution are not mutually exclusive. However, some choose to use ID as science which gives a bad name to rational Christians who are pro-science and pro-America.

Really? Show me a paper in Science, Nature, PNAS or PRL spotlighting this amazing retort to evolution.

Me thinks your response will be that of a typical kook—that these publications have muzzled creationist brilliance from shining through.

“while Creationists and ID scientists beat them over the head with reality”

I recall a recent court case where the ID’ers went down in flames after their prime witness declared that “most probably God was dead...”
