         Intelligent Design is an increasingly unwelcome challenge to 
the doctrines and dogmas of Darwinism.  I don't know about your 
"major players" claim.  I know that many prominent Creation 
Scientists warily circle proponents of ID.  I know that "God didn't 
do it" is not a scientifically verifiable statement, and adding it 
doesn't help any model.

         The US has less and less of a market economy every day,
and more and more of a socialist one.  It may not be a planned economy yet
but we are headed in that direction.
