Kansas professor beaten for denigrating 'intelligent design':

Kansas University religious studies professor Paul Mirecki reported he was beaten by two men about 6:40 a.m. today on a roadside in rural Douglas County. In a series of interviews late this afternoon, Mirecki said the men who beat him were making references to the controversy that has propelled him into the headlines in recent weeks.

“I didn’t know them, but I’m sure they knew me,” he said.

Mirecki said he was driving to breakfast when he noticed the men tailgating him in a pickup truck.

“I just pulled over hoping they would pass, and then they pulled up real close behind,” he said. “They got out, and I made the mistake of getting out.”

He said the men beat him about the upper body with their fists, and he said he thinks they struck him with a metal object. He was treated and released at Lawrence Memorial Hospital...

Pretty stupid if they think the threat of force will force him into silence. Looks like the entire world is going to know..

It won't matter: I spent my adolescence in a similar area with similar people, and these two Kallikaks are probably proud of doing what they did. I speak from experience from far too many years in Texas: the last refuge of the terminally inarticulate is to scream "Oh, yeah? Well, I'll KICK YOUR ASS!"

And once again ID proponents lend evidence to the fact that even if there is design, it certainly isn't intelligent. Pathetic.
