Creepy, but at the same time, strangely encouraging.  In order to pull off the "ID is science - it's not about religion" stunt, they have to shut up about Jesus.  But because few of them know any science, and their religious beliefs compel them not to shut up about Jesus, it's hard to maintain the self-discipline to stay on message and not start testifyin'.

This is going down in flames as soon as it reaches a courthouse.

"Whether you’re a progressive creationist, recent creationist, young earth, old earth, it’s all in the tent of intelligent design. And intelligent design here at Grace Bible Church actually is a smaller, uh, tent than you would have in the intelligent design movement as a whole. Because we are all Biblical literalists, we all believe the Bible to be inerrant, and it’s good to remember, though, that the entire intelligent design movement as a whole is a bigger tent."

- Don McLeroy

mmmmmmmmmmmm...It's all about science?  These assclowns don't even lie well!

Still more proof from McLeroy that ID has nothing whatsoever to do with the Bible:

Quote
Following Phillip Johnson, in his talk McLeroy portrayed “intelligent design” as a “big tent,” explaining, “It’s because we’re all lined up against the fact that naturalism, that nature is all there is. Whether you’re a progressive creationist, recent creationist, young earth, old earth, it’s all in the tent of intelligent design.” He urged his listeners, biblical inerrantists like himself, “to remember, though, that the entire intelligent design movement as a whole is a bigger tent…. just don’t waste our time arguing with each other about some of the, all of the side issues.” Yet he described theistic evolution – which is opposed to naturalism – as “a very poor option,” continuing, “no one in our group represents theistic evolution, and the big tent of intelligent design does not include theistic evolutionists. Because intelligent design is opposed to evolution. Theistic evolutionists embrace it.”
