Cluebats needed at Time

Via Pharyngula: Time magazine is treating the world to yet another "100 most important people" list, because apparently there aren't enough of those already. One of those to make the list, in the science category, is Richard Dawkins. So who did they find to write Dawkins' profile for the article?

Michael Behe.

For those of you who don't recognise that name - count yourself lucky - this is sort of like hiring Fidel Castro to profile John F. Kennedy, except that AFAIK neither Dawkins nor Behe have actually tried to have one another killed.

That's actually a kind of inspired genius. I could really get behind the idea of a '100 most important people' with all the profiles written by bitter enemies. It would at least have the merit of being different.
