Here's a nice example of the chronic and pathological dishonesty of the Intelligent Design proponents at the Orwellian "Discovery [sic] Institute." John West from the Institute ("John West, Ph.D.", as he's always keen to list himself--by the way, I'm "Brian Leiter, Ph.D., J.D."--don't you feel more confident already in what I have to say?) had the audacity to pen an article in a Texas newspaper called "Institute Supports Accurate Science"!
Since no defenses of intelligent design ever appear in peer-refereed science journals, a favorite trick of these "supporters of accurate science" is to misrepresent the content of articles that do appear in peer-refereed biology journals. Happily, West got caught in his flagrant lie, since the author of the article West misrepresented replied here.
I will wager that West, and the other pathological liars at the Obfuscation Institute, will nonetheless recycle this same misrepresentation of scientific work before long.
