Jayjay, you wanted to know whether Dembski lies:
In this video Dembski utters the following lies:
That atheists need a creation story. They don't, they only need to lack a belief in gods. An atheist can just say I don't know.
That atheism needs evolution. It doesn't. You can believe in alien progenitors for example.
That atheism = evolution = materialism. Which is nonsense for reasons explained above.
That there is an atheist agenda. There's no such thing anymore than that there's a non-stamp-collecting agenda.
He claims the Cambrian explosion is a mystery for biologists and paleontologists, which is a lie.
He also claims it's evidence for creationism, which is false.
He lies that ID is a scientific theory, when it proposes no coherent theory with explanatory, let alone predictive power.
He dishonestly asserts there is a conspiracy by biologist to keep people like him from getting jobs because of his beliefs, rather than his lack of scientific rigour.
He repeatedly misrepresents and quote-mines various atheists and/or scientists, including Hitchens himself.
More-over he's a mathematican who apparently doesn't know what a proof is, because that term only applies to mathematics and doesn't refer to the arguments presented by Hitchens.
This guy is lying fraud, nothing more.
