And of course it will not be in a math journal. “My guess is that it will be a mathematics-laden pile of gobbledy-gook…”

And of course it will not be in a math journal.

That would be interesting and as funny as the RATE papers on radioactive decay from the PALEO-CREOS. “Something very ugly and depressing is in the works, I fear.”

I wonder what Luskin thinks he's accomplishing by smearing a well-regarded Federal Judge as a liar and/or moron? It's pretty easy for us to see that Luskin is merely digging a deeper hole for himself and his creationist friends at the Discovery Institute. Eventually, of course, the ID peddlers will manage to get some of their garbage into a peer-reviewed journal. It's bound to happen. My guess is that it will be a mathematics-laden pile of gobbledy-gook with some clever ID-friendly soundbites buried inside. At the Kornell Kreationist Klub Klass blog hosted by Allen McNeil and Hannah Maxson, you can practically hear the sound of the promoters scurrying about to find the most baffling collection of statistical gibberish and test it out on sincere mathematicians. Something very ugly and depressing is in the works, I fear. Well done, Wesley.

With Luskins lack of ability to properly cite material and quotaions, its no wonder he thinks ID has peer review. Think of a peer review comment. "ID has no real scientific validity." Luskin would quote this as, "Real scientific validity." Wow! With Luskins lack of ability to properly cite material and quotaions, its no wonder he thinks ID has peer review.
