Timaeus, one of UD's more articulate ID advocates:
 
Quote
Regarding the possible co-operation between Biologos and ID, I think that in the final analysis it boils down to this: if Biologos is intellectually committed not only to “evolution” but to the specifically neo-Darwinian model of evolution, or to any model of evolution which depends fundamentally on chance to generate novel forms, then there is no hope of any co-operation between the two. ID’s whole raison d’etre is to show the massive implausibility of an evolutionary process that proceeds in this way. ID could not surrender its Darwin-skepticism without ceasing to be itself.

IOW, ID makes no positive assertions, and it is not really its mission to do so.

Don't you get banned over there for saying that?
