Not Intelligent, and Surely Not Science

I just noticed a link to this L.A. Times article on Arts & Letters Daily.

Not Intelligent, and Surely Not Science: "In fact, invoking intelligent design as God's place-filler can only result in the naturalization of the deity. God becomes just another part of the natural world, and thereby loses the transcendent mystery and divinity that define the boundary between religion and science."
