I'll take offense at that. That's no different than saying all black men are drug addicts. I'm a Christian, and an IDer, and I definitely do not advocate lies. In fact, I'm on record for putting Duane Gish on the grill for his refusal to back up a claim with evidence.

So you can stop with the mindless diatribes at any time...

Puleeeze. And I thought only us IDers were ignorant! Ever read a book called BETRAYERS OF THE TRUTH by William Broad and Nicholas Wade? The Subtitle is "Fraud and Deceit in the Halls of Science".

Go read it and then come back and retract your comment. I can't believe you said this. It's pure unadulterated bunk!

Another very interesting premise of the book is one that many advocates of evolution theory are so eager to dismiss: the power of Expectancy. "Expectancy leads to self-deception, and self-deception leads to the propensity to be deceived by others"

Re: Intelligent Design

WHy not look at it this way. My comments might fire up the discussion again...
