Just on the off chance that the above was not written with tongue in
cheek, let me clarify that the reference was to anti-evolution crusader
Phil Johnson.
[And let me quickly add that it was *not* directed at the "theistic
science" movement as a whole, many of whom do not follow Johnson's
unfortunate lead in giving the impression that the truth of theism is
dependent on the existence of certain "gaps" in natural history.]
We had this whole discussion here about 2 months ago (look in the
archives for posts with "Carl Sagan" in the title and also Loren
Haarsma's excellent "ID and fine-tuning. Now what?"); I don't think
rehashing it now would be fruitful.
