But those on the other side probably think he did well...
Well, we've seen denial taken to an extreme by the IDers recently, but even they can't possibly believe that admitting you perjured yourself, and blaming it on drugs, looks good.
Quite so. Sometimes the unvarnished truth is best kept to oneself, though, or saved for appropriate circumstances. I once told a supervisor of mine precisely what I thought of him and his managerial/professional abilities. I did this on the way out the door, needless to say ;)
Some people are beyond help and some situations are beyond rescue. There comes a time to stop taking the money for supposedly doing what you know can't be done.

Darn it - you almost owe me a new keyboard for that. Reading the article I had to choose whether to choke and die on the coke I was drinking, or spit it out on the keyboard to free the airways for laughter. Mike Argento is just hilarious :)
The "clean hands," this-is-not-about-religion ID people are facing a dilemma. (Never mind the evidence of all their own past statements potentially puts them in Buckingham's shoes.) The people they're firing up are the same people who thirty years ago were buying The Genesis Flood. It's the YEC crowd.
And all the "scientific" IDers can do is fire them up, get them charging into the guns, pull out, and watch them lose.
The battle is not between science and Christianity. The battle is between science and Bible-idolatry.
"The battle is not between science and Christianity. "
You're right, of course. It's just that some of the YEC folks seem to think that their beliefs are the only true beliefs. Odd, that.
To paraphrase the 12 yr old AOLer...OMG! WTF? LOL!!
Why odd? Otherwise there'd be no denominations, just atheists and theists. Would that be an improvement?
Good observation! These people have gone from worshipping God to worshipping the Bible! That kind of worship is something even the Bible warns against. They are worshipping the book, not what's in it and it shows by their actions.
The court will decide for the plaintiffs, not because of intelligent design per se, but because of the revival tents and venomous snakes that came along with it.
Yes, good point, unfortunately. That would mean we'd have to fight the battle again, possibly where the other side is better prepared.
On the other hand, the MSM will surely represent it as a defeat for intelligent design, and that may dissuade other districts from trying it.
OK. Larry has been presented. When do we get to see Moe and Curly Joe?
This sounds like a set up by DI to make sure ID doesn't get taught in school until they can 'refine' their program.
Sorry, actually it sounds like a set up by the keystone cops.
Sorry again. The DI is run by keystone cops.
With most of the Dover threads, there's lots of input by Creationist/IDers. Where are they today? Or is Friday their new Sabbath day?
Why, is there something wrong with the old one?
It's fun to quote mine
I think our celebration is premature. Based on this testimony, and other testimony to come, the judge can issue a very narrow ruling that the Dover school board intended to promote creationism. He does not have to mention ID in his ruling at all. I'm betting on this.
DI has some lawyers who are not brain dead and don't want to be associated with a train wreck.
The other thread documenting their internal squabble indicates they are close to self destruction.
Time for the snake to shed the ID skin and move on to Intelligent Evolution.
