…to this gem I just received about my post on the Dover creationism case:
Carl,
It doesn’t bother you that the judge went beyond any human capacity to attack the board members, not for their actions, not for their efforts to remove science fiction from the science classroom (that would be a realistic description of Darwinian evolution as it is fictional and not factual), but rather because he stated they were trying to introduce religion into the classroom.
The fact is that he could not possibly challenge the facts of the case, the facts of Intelligent Design – yes the SCIENTIFIC FACTS are incontrovertible, but because he knew he could not do this and the scientific community must rely on an environment closed to any scrutiny of Darwinianism, he made the case about religious intent which is a damnable lie.
God help him and you can be sure of this Carl, the reason you cannot see how wrong you are is that the god of this world, Satan, has blinded your eyes to the truth. May God have mercy on your soul.
In Christ,
Bill
So, to recap: Intelligent Design is scientific, and anyone who says it is not must be blinded by Satan. Are we clear?
