Bill Dembski set up his Uncommon Descent website back in 2005. Since then, it has been a source of amusement for "Intelligent Design" skeptics and, when moderation allowed, fun to argue with ID supporters in the comment threads. But no longer. The website at https://uncommondescent.com/....ent....ent.com has disappeared. A read-only archive of sorts exists at https://www.uncommondescent.com/....ent....ent.com which preserves the last 15 OPs for each year from 2005 to 2023 but the last pro-ID venue where comments could be added has folded.

Actually I think the DI archive is complete, up to April 12.

I would like to think that closing the Uncommonly Dense Thread 5 put the last nail into the coffin....

Indeed. They have gone defunct years ago and I actually only read UD content here.

Thanks, Jack, for pointing that out. Just the date tags and links are missing from comments. Someone also managed to download a save including the last comments. It's 2 Gb and available on request
