Anthony Flew, the guru of dogmatic atheism, was at least honest enough to follow the socratic path and go where the strongest evidence leads: Design by an intelligent mind.

Those with a more emotional objection to the evidence have an emotiobnal objection to overcome.

But they have to be able to see that self-created barrier first. And many simply won't.

"Anthony Flew, the guru of dogmatic atheism, was at least honest enough to follow the socratic path and go where the strongest evidence leads: Design by an intelligent mind."

So Anthony Flew (whoever that is) believes in "intelligent design". What does that have to do with whether "intelligent design" actually occurred? Should I start pointing to Christians who believe in evolution and pretend like that proves something?

Antony Flew, a philosopher (not a scientist), fell into argument from ignorance and said that an intelligent agent "might" have been responsible for the initial start of the universe. He has not, in any way, however, rejected the theory of evolution.
