Surely this explains why ID is subsumed into YEC by many opponents? By
allowing their ideas to be part of YEC and the Trojan Horse of YEC
(deliberate expression) can tend to see both as one and the same thing.

Five years ago I always said that ID and YEC were totally separate, I now
consider them to be so intertwined (Pandas and People) that for all intents
and purposes they are the same and have the same malevolent effect.

I loved Burgy's gradation of YEC manners from ICR (gentlemen - despite their
porkies), AIG with nice gentle Ham and Safarti and worst Willis. Where does
that mild-mannered Australian John Mackay come into this scale of ill
manners?
