HuffPo Rips Into Dembski

Barrett Brown, author of Flock of Dodos: Behind Modern Creationism, Intelligent Design, and the Easter Bunny, can be found on the Huffington Post ripping into ID proponetist William Dembski:
Consider William Dembski, the mathematician and theologian who rose to the top of the nascent intelligent design pack in the late '90s after claiming to have proven that certain aspects of biology can be attributable only to the intervention of one or more intelligent entities. As for who or what those entities might be, Dembski is coy when addressing a potentially secular audience, claiming that there "are many possibilities." Among these possibilities, we may determine, is that Dembski is lying; in a 1999 interview with the Christian magazine Touchstone, Dembski stated unambiguously that "[i]ntelligent design is just the Logos theology of John's Gospel restated in the idiom of information theory."
