I tell you what I would like to see. A nationally televised confrontation between the evolutionists and the Intelligent Designer people. First each side would be allowed to make their case. Then each side would be allowed to refute the other's case. Then both sides would be given lie detector tests on selected questions and then finally each side would be given IQ tests. Now, how do you think that would turn out?

I don't think this would work, why? Some of the ID people may be intelligent but they are not capable of being reasonable. They are like the OJ Simpson jury. That jury would have let him off even if they had stood there and watched him do it. Its like the Baptist church sign. they are hopelessly locked in to an irrational paradigm.
