Did you actually look at the names you've given and what they stand of stood for? Or is Michelle Bachmann enough of an authority to make your case?
Here's just one of them. Wonder how he manages to square his circle, but it's the only one mentioned in a relevant field of science. It's also pointed out that he's one of the very few believing in intelligent design.
Quote:Unlike William A. Dembski and others in the intelligent design movement, Behe accepts the common descent of species, including that humans descended from other primates, although he states that common descent does not by itself explain the differences between species. He also accepts the scientific consensus on the age of the Earth and the age of the Universe.
So he doesn't dispute scientific facts but still insists on intelligen design. He just inserts an assertiuon to make ends meet from his point of view. Doesn't explain simply means, we don't know, so it's the classic god of the gaps. Curious.
I also looked up Wolf-Ekkehard Lönnig, who isn't accepted by the scientific community at all. In fact he's pretty much standing alone without anyone in his field offering support.
