This may be true that the IDM has lost many people from the Christian faith or at least confused them, but at this point it is no more than an unverified belief, a feeling so to speak. I've said for a few years already that ID is a transition theory that will ultimately give way to something more significant. Actually, I don't even think the IDM has stimulated more scientific research, perhaps only in studying the Movement rather than in the natural sciences laboratories. If it had come up with a serious research programme in the past 14 years (since the Pajaro meeting in 1993) then surely we all would have heard about it by now. May your sadness be tempered by hope for the future.

Maybe it’s stimulated more scientific research but has entrenched many away from Christianity. It’s very sad, IMO.
