"Confronting" the forces of darkness

Tim Blair:

The ABC condemns Islamofascism as “ignorant”, a “stalking monster”, and a “force of darkness”. Actually, no; those terms in fact describe intelligent design, in an ABC promotion for a new Robyn Williams book....

...

I’m not religious, so I don’t have a God in this fight, but I’d sure like to read a “short, wicked and witty” book by Robyn Williams exposing all the scientific flaws in fundamentalist Islam (and the ABC’s aggressive promotion of that book). Williams better write it quickly, though, before intelligent design militias hunt him down and kill him for his heresy. Only has days to live, does Williams; an entity known as the forces of darkness likely doesn’t mess around.
He could start with the "descendents of pigs and monkeys" myth about the origon of the Jews and the talking rocks. Why has not the scientific community attacked this weakness in the Koran. Because of the Islamist belief in the literal supremacy of the Koran, would the whole religion crumble? The "ABC" Blair is referring to is the Australian Broadcasting Company. There are numerous comments to his post.
