Sarfati is an intelligent man; there are creationists out there who do have an understanding of evolution and are not just peddling the same rubbish that people like Kent Hovind or Ken Ham use. People like Bill Dempski, Michael Behe, etc are all intelligent, and published multiple times in respectable journals.
The fact is that being intelligent doesn't stop one from believing in ridiculous things, or falling into the trap of bending the rules in order to accommodate a deeply held faith. There are intelligent creationists, and there are stupid evolutionists. It doesn't change the strength of the actual evidence behind either idea; the evidence for evolution is vast, the evidence for creation is not.
