I really must respond, Gregory, to this particular claim:

   
  Likewise, Michael, member of CIS, nothing you nor anyone else (q.
McGrath) there has done has adequately countered the tide of atheism that
Richard Dawkins has launched upon the world. Your TE/EC status quo view has
been suitable/convenient for Dawkins' apologetic, while causing problems for
Christian unity.

Gregory:

If you find McGrath, Francis Collins (see his debate with Richard Dawkins,
the cover story in Time magazine on Nov 13, 2006, in addition to his book),
and Owen Gingerich (his book, God's Universe, reviewed here
http://www.firstthings.com/article.php3?id_article=5486 ) to be
inadequate, then that is your view. But no one who understands any of these
men can accuse them of having a "status quo" view that is "convenient" for
Dawkins' polemics. What exactly is it that you have not understood about
their position? Have you in fact read it? Do they not each clearly state a
view that opposes Dawkins? I am not convinced that you understand them at
all, frankly.
