This is why ID is essentially a liberal philosophy.

Nifty and humorous idea.

However if it were so liberal - why do so many of the 'Religious Right' fall over themselves to embrace it? Also going to the extreme of raping science textbooks and classrooms with the ID attack...

Possibly for the same reason many so-called conservatives promote economic intervention schemes.

There is a component of conservatism that believes in minimal government and one that favors the use of government to promote conservative values.

The dims are not the only political party with warring factions.

Because this group has the same goals and ideals and methods as the PostModernDeconstructionistTextualAnalyzers, to wit: the destruction of scientific inquiry as a method of investigation. Not to mention Harun Yahya.
