Your "10,000 chrisian clergy" are unbelievers. There are many frauds in every profession, but nowhere so many as the 'clergy.' Our Lord spoke of them ('clergy' of his day on earth) as being "of your father the devil."

It would surprise me in no way if you put your 'faith' in one of them.

Ah, look, yet another AECreationist posting his MERE PRESUMPTION about the signers of the letter as if it was some sort of fact.

Do you guys get paid by the lie or something?

On that list of pro-evolution clergy, I see ELCA and other Lutherans, United Methodists, Presbyterians, Catholics, Episcopal, Congregationalists, UCC, and even a Baptist. Oddly enough, only a few Unitarians. So which of these denominations is pro-abortion, pro-homosexual, or otherwise anathema? I'm curious what tiny percentage of Christians actually measure up to you gentlemen's exacting tests of orthodoxy.

Quoting: "Your "10,000 christian clergy" are unbelievers. There are many frauds in every profession, but nowhere so many as the 'clergy.' Our Lord spoke of them ('clergy' of his day on earth) as being "of your father the devil."

Reply: You seem to diss all the many Christians who accept evolution and the world of common sense and objective rational observation. Maybe you think there are two classes: (1) 'true' Christians who believe exactly as you do, and (2) "damned" Christians, atheists, Muslims, Jews, and rationalists. You may be right, but this is not the teaching of Jesus--There are many paths to truth.

There is nothing in 'intelligent design' that leads people to Christ. It is a big difference between Catholics and Protestants. It divides Conservatives. It is anti-scientific inquiry. It has no resonance with evangelical Christians.

ID therefore has no value, neither for Christianity nor for conservative values.
