What qualifies a person to be a "Philosopher of science"?

Stephen Meyer has been director of the ID scam unit of the Discovery Institute from the beginning in the mid 1990's, and has directed the bait and switch scam for over 22 years.  Getting ID taught in the public schools was one of the 5 year goals listed in the Wedge Document, and Meyer was one of the major proponents for teaching ID in the public schools and coauthor of the ID scam booklet on teaching ID in the public schools that they used to give out with their ID Wedge video.  That booklet was still available to download for free from the Discovery Institute web site during the Dover fiasco.  After Dover the ID perps still claimed to be able to teach ID in the public schools, but they did not want ID "required" to be taught.  It became part of their official education policy that still exists in their current Teach ID propaganda.
When they ran the bait and switch on both Louisiana and Texas in 2013 they removed the "required" paragraph from their education policy because neither state was requiring ID to be taught, but the Discovery Institute ran the bait and switch on both states anyways.  No creationist group has ever gotten the ID science to teach from the ID perps.  They eventually rewrote their education policy and reintroduced the "not required" stupidity, and Utah took them up on it, and wanted to teach ID in their public schools back in 2017, but the bait and switch went down again.  As stupid as it may be West Virginia creationist rubes recently got legislation past that the authors claim will allow teaching ID in their public schools, but they did not require ID to be taught. The Discovery institute ran the bait and switch anyway, and claimed that they did not support teaching ID in the public schools.  Their education policy was removed from their web site.  I could not find it listed in their education section after they came out against the West Virginia effort, but it reappeared because it was probably stupid to try to deny what they had been claiming when you just have to use Wayback internet archive to bring up their past web pages.
So using ID "science" as bait in a bogus political bait and switch scam qualifies someone to be a Philosopher of science.  As far as I can tell no ID science has ever been attempted.  The negative reaction of the TO IDiots to the Top Six best evidences for IDiocy indicates that creationists never wanted the ID perps to successfully accomplish any legitimate ID science.  Not very many biblical creationists want the ID perps to successfully fill any of the Top Six gaps with a god that would obviously not be the Biblical god.  ID has only been used as bait to lure the rubes in, in order to bend them over and try to make them take the obfuscation and denial switch scam that the ID perps tell them has nothing to do with ID science.  Nearly all the creationist rubes have dropped the issue instead of bend over for the switch scam.  Ohio dropped the issue in 2007 and both Lousiana and Texas tried to use the switch scam legislation and school board policies to teach ID, and had to have the bait and switch run on them again.  Neither state has tried to implement the switch scam at the state level since the 2013 bait and switch went down.
The bait and switch failed in Dover, and now in West Virginia.  The ID perps have never put out a public school lesson plan for teaching the junk, so no one (not even the West Virginia creationist rubes) know what to teach about the ID scam.  Nelson has been an ID perp that has always told the rubes that they didn't have any ID science yet, but that they were working on producing some.  Nelson never bought into the Top Six best evidences for IDiocy.  Nelson like the Dover and West Virginia rubes is a young earth creationist, and as a whole, the Top Six are not consistent with biblical creationism.  The ID perps made that clear to the TO IDiots by claiming that they were in "their order simply reflecting that in which they must logically have occurred within our universe".  It turned out that science is just the study of nature, and nature is not Biblical.
#1 of the Top Six evidences for IDiocy is the Big Bang, and biblical creationists have already dropped that topic out of the public school science standards in Kansas, and I recall Texas and Oklahoma also wanted to drop the Big Bang from their science standards.  This just means that the IDiotic creationist rubes do not want to teach the best evidence for ID, so what is it that they are going to teach about ID?
The bait and switch has been required because the ID perps have nothing that the creationists would want to teach.  Running a bait and switch scam seems to qualify someone to be a Philosopher of science.  I guess Meyer does understand science enough to know that he doesn't want it taught honestly and in a straight forward manner whether it is called creation science or intelligent design.  The Scientific creationists used to use the Top Six for god-of-the-gaps denial "evidence", but they were never stupid enough to claim that they had obviously occurred in a nonbiblical order in this universe.
