For as long as I can recall it has been my experience that the vast majority of Theistic Evolutionists (TE) vehemently oppose Intelligent Design (ID). That always seemed very odd to me and I eventually came to see it as a sort of 'Freudian Slip' in the sense that I have long believed that TE is much more about justifying Naturalism/Materialism than it is about promoting Christianity (but that would be another issue).
Old Earth Creationists (OEC) also participate in this but not quite as much and/or as strongly as do TE.
So, the question to TE and OEC is this:
Why - on what grounds - are you opposed to ID? If you are not opposed to ID then why not?
There is no need to ask Materialists/Humanists/Atheists the first question as the answer is obvious.
