Lewinton says all scientists are atheists. They aren’t so he’s wrong. Whether ID is or isn’t science doesn’t depend on that, so it can still be wrong.

The ID proponents say ID doesn’t necessarily have to involve a supernatural creator. You say it does. How is anybody supposed to figure out if it’s science or not if you can’t even agree on what it is?

"Lewinton says all scientists are atheists. They aren’t so he’s wrong. Whether ID is or isn’t science doesn’t depend on that, so it can still be wrong."

You previously defined scientists such that anyone who believes in supernatural creation was not a scientist.

Now you say that scientists can believe in a supernatural creator. This would mean that a scientist who believes in ID can be a scientist and ID is science.

Which is it?
