Perhaps your "article" posted from "Science Digest" (nothing cited) would carry more weight if it were true.

Evolutionist Sir Fred Hoyle: Was certainly no evolutionist. 1st example is an outright lie! How do you so-called christians sleep at night? Hoyle was an astronomer who NEVER accepted evolution. However, I'm sure you'd be interested to know he thought life came here on a comet from another planet. No mention of creationism. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1503721.stm

Researcher and Mathematician I. L. Cohen: Haha, this is getting fun. after a difficult Google search, I finally found this "mathematician" on the "Tribulation Force" website. Apparently balancing my checkbook makes me a "mathetmatician." This same website provided me with much more of your "proof." (Warning this site is so annoying with it flashing background http://www.thetribulationforce.com/RNA_DNA.htm)

Evolutionist Michael Denton: Again, calling Micael Denton an "evolutionist" is like calling Bill Clinton a good guy. Denton is a published and well known ID'er from New Zealand. He has also been exposed as a liar and a cheat: http://www.cs.colorado.edu/~lindsay/creation/denton.html

Peter Saunders (University of London) and Mae-Wan Ho (Open University): well, first of all Peter Saunders is a professor at KINGS COLLEGE in London. A deliberate attempt to make it difficult for me to find out that he is actually a mathematician with interests in the Precautionary principle and, gasp, biodiversity based of what we know of evolution. Another lie: http://www.ratical.org/co-globalize/MaeWanHo/PrecautionP.html

Evolutionist Dr. Colin Patterson: Sigh. You keep picking on dead people. This "quote" is widely known to be taken WAY out of context and is totally dishonest as it cut him off in the middle of a qualifying statement. Read this link and go out and buy his book. It's called "Evolution" and you might learn something (since he's one of your examples!) http://www.ncseweb.org/resources/rncse_content/vol20/5212_ievolutioni_by_colin_patt_12_30_1899.asp

Evolutionist Greg Kirby: You are right, for once. He is an evolutionist and even published a peer reviewed (imagine that!) paper: "Kirby, G.C. & J.J. Burdon. 1997 Effects of mutation and random drift on Leonard’s gene-for-gene coevolution model. Phytopathology 87(5); 488-493. In other words, you took his "quote" completely out of context and he'd probably be pretty pissed you are being dishonest about it.

I'll stop here. You get the point. Whatever Creationist website you pulled your list from is bearing false witness. When is this ridiculous campaign going to stop??

Old creationist technique:
QUOTE-MINING...THE TRADITION CONTINUES.
An Old, Out of Context Quotation .
The Revised Quote Book .
