Agonus: Was there anything in this video to support your assertions about Shermer? Additionally, please give an example of someone you'd be comfortable referring to as a "true skeptic".
Well, not in this case. Shermer is right, Purdom is in lala land. Its a red herring to bring up other stuff in this case regarding a literalist Bible creationist.

Intelligent Design: Losing the Catholics
. . .
The Discovery Institute has from its beginning claimed it would in short order get actual scientists to consider intelligent design as a viable scientific theory, by publishing peer-reviewed articles in the leading science journals.
But they've failed. And no matter how much cheering the Institute Fellows get from friendly audiences at Bible schools and church socials, the reality is: this was not the way things were supposed to turn out.
And now, they're losing the Catholics.
This past year, prominent Catholic conservative intellectuals at once ID-friendly magazines and web sites, started to break their silence about the vapidity of intelligent design.
