And that's it. The anti-ID group likes to make dire predictions about the quacks taking over WP if they aren't there to be its saviors, but really it's all about their own egos.
Even the most glowing WP article would be unlikely to convert anyone to believe in ID. They pick that belief up in their homes and churches, not the internet.
That's exactly where Wikipedia falls down as a "reference". The admins support snarky "science"
POV pushers, who battle pointless and unending wars with equally-snarky Christian POV pushers.
And nobody shows the slightest concern for the average Joes and Janes who are reading ID articles
on WP and trying to make sense of them. If WP's "elite" (what a funny thing to call those mutants)
really wanted to stand up for the scientific view, they'd go out and debate the ID people--in person,
in homes and churches (and other public places). But no, they are (all) cowards and backstabbers.
It's easier, safer and more fun to snipe at the "enemy" on an "encyclopedia-MMORPG-thing".
