...Michael Behe, since he wrote the technical chapters in the ID textbooks. When asked to list some "intricate and advanced biologic units" that could not have evolved through Darwinian processes, he cites the malaria parasite...

Did he continue to explain the sickle-cell response and the MORE untold suffering of "countless mothers mourning countless children?" What sort of sick bastard believes this crap?

Behe accepts common descent and an ancient earth. This is important to know, since he is the only qualified expert witness who testifies in court for the ID position.

He accepts that most evolution, including the ape to human transition, could have arisen by stepwise mutation and selection. This seems to me like something that ID in the classroom advocates should be aware of. If they succeed in getting ID in the classroom, they will be endorsing an alternative to evolution that admits common descent and a multi-billion year old earth.
