In the News/Activism forum, on a thread titled How Intelligent Design Hurts Conservatives (By making us look like crackpots), Just mythoughts wrote:

"PLEASE, liberals are evolution, godless."

Factually incorrect. Many libs are obtrusively religious (Quaker "peace activists" are thick on the ground at vigils and protests). And nobody has ever explained to me how evolution by natural selection is inherently Godless.

You're falling into exactly the trap the article describes: by mistakenly conflating evolutionary science with Godlessness you make yourself look like a slope-browed Neanderthal religious fanatic.

The ID advocates aren't interested in the mechanisms of evolution per se. They are interested in discrediting the methods and findings of science itself, as they pertain to casting doubt on the literal historical accuracy of Genesis.
