Not on topic for this discussion.
You can find my definition of creationism here, at the end of the OP, though I know you have already read it.
One of our members, @Eddie , who is a fervent supporter of what I, and many others here, refer to as Intelligent Design Creationism, has objected to the term “creationist” being used to describe all members of the ID movement. Specifically, he believes that the term should not be used to refer to individuals such as Michael Behe and Michael Denton who accept common ancestry between all organisms on earth, including humans.
In defense of his position, he recently started a topic in which he purports to demonstrate thru quotations that the term “creationism” is generally used in narrow sense that would exclude any views that accept that humans and other organisms evolved from common ancestors, even if it is claimed that this could not have occurred entirely thru the naturalistic processed described under the theory of evolution and, instead, required the intervention at some point of an “intelligent designer.”
There ensued an, at times, rather spirited if not heated discussion in whi…
Your continued resorting to lame excuses to avoid discussing the flaws identified in Denton’s claim is duly noted. If you do not know whether he addresses these issues, you are in no position to say his claims are of any scientific value whatsoever.
