Oh NOES! Another greatest threat!

Gil,
I occasionally get into long arguments with Darwinists on this site or under an Amazon book review, and I sometimes tell them that I am a representative of the greatest threat to their point of view, namely intelligent, educated, scientifically literate people, formerly believers in Darwinism, who find the arguments for ID compelling and the Darwinist responses totally inadequate. I have yet to get a direct response to any such statement, however.

I wonder what kind of "direct response" he expects.
Yes, you, Sir, are personally the greatest threat to my point of view. I'm living in mortal fear that all of science will collapse since I've read your comment burrowed under this here amazon book review/UD post. If only intelligent, educated, scientifically literate people were on my side, too! I mean, in addition to the absolute majority of scientists that share my "point of view". And the majority of people with postgraduate education.
