Denton is 81 years old, and Wells made it to 82 (died on his birth day).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_DentonThis wiki is really deficient. Denton's later books are not even listed. From my recollection Denton published at least 5 deistic books after his return to ID scam unit of the Discovery Institute, but the other ID perps do not like those books because they want their designer to be an interactive god.
Denton was one of the original ID perps that started the ID scam unit of the Discovery Institute. He was a fellow when Dembski and Nelson were some kind of student interns or junior members. Denton quit the ID scam after the publication of his second book, Nature's Destiny. The book was not accepted very well by the other ID perps. Denton had claimed that biological evolution was a fact of nature in the forward to the book, and set up his notions that nature had been set up to run on rollers to unfold into what we have today. The ID perps even published a roundtable discussion about the book, and Denton had not been invited to the discussion. My recollection was that the discussion was over all negative, and was likely published in order to make it clear that the ID scam unit of the Discovery Institute did not support Denton's deistic views of the intelligent designer.
Denton quit the ID scam unit, but he did return after the IDiotic loss in Dover and published more deistic books. I don't know why he stays because they have not treated him very well. I put up a post where the another ID perp interviewed Denton and basically made fun of his claim of being an agnostic. The author claimed that Denton had a "sly twinkle" in his eye when he discussed the probable lie, and noted that Denton admitted that he may only be a back sliding Christian. Denton always had his own notions of god, and those notions do not sit well with the other ID perps. Denton seems to have been agnostic about other people's religious beliefs, but the other ID perps do not like Denton's religious beliefs.
