The fact that a publication such as Scientific American would stoop to such tactics, to say nothing of the tactics of groups such as..

Isn't it obvious? They clearly feel threatened by the "Intelligent Design" movement. Oh, sure they'll deny this until they're blue in the face. Have no doubts about that. As always, actions speak louder than words, and the more threatened they feel, the more heated and inflamatory their rhetoric becomes. They can't seem to wipe out these "wicked and/or insane Creationists" with their one-sided approach to science, so they are moving on to attacking their opponents by puting their sanity, intelligence, motives, etc. into question. This too, will fail. Until they learn to debate the subject on its merits; to confess that they too have presuppositions which supercede empirical science, they will continue heading down this road, and they will continue to lose the debate in the public square. Ohio is a great example of precisely what I'm talking about.

Or maybe, as the article points out, creationist claims are simply false.
