its a fallback position. education has worked to the point where even most christians cant swallow the 6 day creation myth. still they have to find a way to rationalize their belief so they retreated to intelligent design. "science is giving christians new and interesting gaps for them to cram their ever-diminishing god into â but the inevitable effect of that is to make the god theyâre arguing for the nebulous existence of so far removed from the god of the bible as to make it a completely separate entity."
