I don't know how it is I somehow always end up being the one defending Fred Williams here, but here I go again. I'm actually very fond of Fred. I find him adorable. He's a real interesting read, he's persistent, he's resourceful. I also think he's woefully self-deluded, and his debate style involves every kind of annoying fallacy, but it's part of his charm. Fred probably doesn't deserve this, but I see no reason why evolutionists should open themselves up to the same types of charges we level at Fred, and so I think criticism's of Fred should be fair and accurate. In that vein, I offer this thorough and complete defense of Fred on the issues mentioned by Budikka:

Try this: go to Williams' site (notice the .COM, not .ORG - this is a commercial site), and type the word "science" into his cheesey "search engine". This is the reply you will get: "Sorry, there are no matches for science on this site." ...etc...
I don't think Fred's website should be judged by the quality of his search engine. I certainly hope no one judges
this website using such a criteria. (New search engine for messages coming around Thanksgiving - thorough and powerful).
That ends my defense of Fred!
