Orac on Pat Robertson’s threat to Dover, PA. “This sort of absolutist thinking is a hallmark of fundamentalists. There’s no room for rational disagreement. If you don’t agree with the religious position, you have “rejected God,” and are therefore shunned by believers. And just what was it that Michael Behe and all the Discovery Institute drones are always saying that the “intelligent designer”is not necessarily God, that “intelligent design” is not creationism, not a religious concept? Perhaps they had better have a little talk with Pat Roberts [sic]. It would appear that he hasn’t gotten the memo. He’s wandering off the talking points.”
