Why shouldn't anti-evoltutionists such as Dembski or Behe be considered part of the "scientific community?"

Behe doesn't consider himself an anti-evolutionist.

Fair enough but neither do I in many contexts. I think, however, that anyone who insists that biodiversity is due solely to accident is expressing a faith not a theory.

By the way, I just ran a Scifinder search on Dembski and did not turn up a single peer-reviewed scientific paper. Perhaps Tribune7 can prove me wrong by citing one? Behe did publish one theoretical paper in 2004, after a gap of many years, questioning the efficacy of gene duplication as a means of producing new functions.
