Well, this is frustrating, Howard. I understand your preferences, but gee!
You're leaving after starting what looked like an interesting debate. I wish
it could continue a little longer, because I strongly stand by my assertion
that your theological formulations were slanted, needlessly. I DO agree that
ID results in certain theological commitments, just not the ones you defined.

have to construct a list of the several meanings of the word so that people
can be better assured that they are talking about the same thing.>>
Well, I've tried. I've explicity detailed my view about God's interventionism,
and even used an example--Christ. I did so in response to Terry Gray's idea
that "planned" was the same as "accomplished." But he hasn't responded,
either. That's another Calvin guy who started something then went away! What's
going on there in Michigan? Is it the cold snap? The maple syrup?
[All of the above meant in adversarial good fun. No disrespect. But it would
be nice to get some responses now and then after an intriguing post comes in!]
