Hell, it's vertical.
What a stupid article.
No offense, Papau.

The study is on the origin of life, it has absolutely nothing to do with ID or religious beliefs.
The author is a moron.
He infers that Harvard is not being truthful about the project with this line:

Harvard tried to downplay the timing of the project, saying it was not in response to the debate over intelligent design theory.

And then he interviews someone from the Discovery Institute, as if they are qualified to comment on scientific research:

"This is ... a stunning admission that the current theories do not explain it, and it has not refuted the idea that things are the product of intelligent cause," said John West, a senior fellow at the Seattle-based Discovery Institute, a think tank that backs intelligent design theory.

And if you still have any doubts about the reporter's bias, this is his description of the Discovery Institute:

The Discovery Institute advocates that schools teach scientific criticisms of Darwin's theories.

See this article about the scientific research Harvard is doing without the pinhead reporter putting the god spin on it:
