Goebbels also had a cutting approach, but that did not make him right. So does Dawkins

ID has produced nothing of worth .

  No, this is unfair. 'Toxic' - not just a Brittany Spears song - is not an appropriate word for the IDM. Perhaps you need to be a sociologist, i.e. a non-natural scientist to really understand this. Don't confuse ID with 'creationism,' especially since you're embroiled in an ideological viewpoint - TE, even TN - yourself!!

  It is obvious that I am not a fan of D. O`Leary, but her post-Darwinian approach (if it can be dignified as something concrete) actually is more cutting edge than you have yet expressed (even if she herself doesn't understand it). I bother because it is the social reality of what's happening in our world today. It is not the absence of reality that it appears most TE's function in, living in contradiction, pretending they have found a 'balance' amidst the muck.

  En garde George.

ICR & AiG also have resources to hand out, videos under their belt, &c. The tactics of Dembski & his Minister of Disinformation O'Leary put Karl Rove to shame. Sure, maybe you can find a couple of rose petals floating in the muck, but why bother?
