   just what actually exists, what actually happened, and what nature   
   actually is.   
      
   Behe is a theistic evolutionist tweeker who understands that his   
   designer evolved the flagellum over a billion years ago.  He thinks that   
   his designer has acted in non Bilbical ways to evolve life on this   
   planet.  He has always understood that the "Big Tent" is a lie.  Really,   
   any legitimate science could never support the vast majority of   
   creationists that get fooled by the ID scam.  Most of their support   
   still comes from YEC, and you have ID perps like Luskin that claim to   
   have gotten their PhD studying rocks over 2 billion years old, and Meyer   
   (the creationist clown that has run the ID scam unit from the beginning)   
   claims that he has the ID science that proves that his designer is   
   responsible for designing lifeforms during a 25 million year period over   
   half a billion years ago for the Cambrian explosion.   
      
   Most of the creationists that support the ID scam, just want to be lied   
   to, and that is what the ID perps do best.   
      
   The claim that the ID perps could do the same science as everyone else   
   and support their Biblical creationist beliefs has always been a lie.   
   YEC ID perps like Nelson never wanted the other ID perps to succeed in   
   doing any real science.  He joined to support the ID Wedge scam because   
   he understood that the ID perps did not have any legitimate ID science.   
   If they had, had any it would have just been more science for Nelson to   
   deny.   
      
   You need to deal with what the ID scam actually is, and what Science   
   actually is.
