So RWP and others who derive their income from "producing science results" have more to loose than just a debate.

OMG, RightWingProfessor, Coyoteman, furball4paws.... we have been found out!! That Amish with an attitude really saw right through us!!! Oh, Drat!!

Creationist / ID notion of "scientific" evaluation of research proposals:

Proposal 1: OK, guys, this guy has some publications to his name. Well, that is one strike against him. And look here, his last experiment actually worked and produced results. Well, golly, this doesn't look too good. Oh, no. Look here, he has a Ph.D in Physics. Well, let's trash this one. Who is this bozo anyway??? Must be a (gasp) Darwinist.

Proposal 2: Well, this proposal certainly looks better. Look here, absolutely no publications. That't more like it. And look here, he as never done any research that actually worked. Oh, he tried demonstrating rock halos from Polonium. Well, that really failed. OK, looking good. We like those failures. Oh, this cinches it: he got is masters degree from a mail order house and his Ph.D from the Discovery Institute. Can't ask for better credentials than that. Let's give this one buckets of money!!!

Good satire. (They'll hate it of course.)

LOL!

(Not that anyone is getting funded next year anyway. After 5 years of spending like a drunken sailor, the congressional GOP is looking for cuts to restore its cred, and why fund science when you can pour money into 'faith based initiatives?)

Love to have you in the foxhole next to my pond scum. I'm sure C-man will supply the bones (hopefully BBQued) and RWP some artificial light. Physicist can supply the ghostly improbable tales. We can pop a few quarks and have a luau under the eye of RA. So, I guess we'll now all have to leave FR. I mean our covers have been blown.

"OMG, RightWingProfessor, Coyoteman, furball4paws.... we have been found out!! That Amish with an attitude really saw right through us"

that takes all of about 2 seconds.

Despite that, I do thank you for your service to our country, if I'm reading your nick name accurately...folks like you keep our country free so that we can bicker with each other freely.

Proposal 3: Let's determine if he believes in the Intelligent Designer and all he/she/it Designs. If 'No', then no money for you. If 'Yes', then we'll give you some money but we'll be watching you closely.
