@gbrooks9:
Bugg and Gauger like to make a big deal about how important it could be if there was a bottleneck after 500,000 years… and now it’s 700,000. It’s malarky. The whole point about I.D. is to defend the YEC position. Hardly anybody is going to be an Old Earth Creationist.
As someone who was associated with the Intelligent Design movement for many years, my reaction to this comment is one of incredulity. Will Dembski, Steve Meyer, Mike Behe, David Berlinski, Doug Axe, Ann Gauger, Casey Luskin - they’re all either old earth creationists or believers in common descent. I could go on and on.
