The best evidence shows that Flew was at the VERY MOST converted to an impersonal Deism. The Law of Parsimony does not even permit that conclusion.
However, it is irrelevant and of no interest. Another of your famous red herrings. CASE CLOSED!!
In 2007, Flew published a book titled There is a God, which was listed as having Roy Abraham Varghese as its co-author. "Shortly after the book was released, the New York Times published an article by religious historian Mark Oppenheimer, who stated that Varghese had been almost entirely responsible for writing the book, and that Flew was in a serious state of mental decline, having great difficulty remembering key figures, ideas, and events relating to the debate covered in the book.[4] His book praises several philosophers (like Brian Leftow, John Leslie and Paul Davies), but Flew failed to remember their work during Oppenheimer's interview. The article provoked a public outcry, in which atheist PZ Myers called Varghese "a contemptible manipulator."[23]
A further article by Anthony Gottlieb noted a strong difference in style between the passages giving Flew's biography, and those laying out the case for a god, with the latter including Americanisms such as "beverages", "vacation" and "candy". He came to the same conclusion as Oppenheimer, and stated that "Far from strengthening the case for the existence of God, [the book] rather weakens the case for the existence of Antony Flew".[24] Varghese replied with a letter disputing this view."
As to your "evidence":
"Jeffrey Shallit, a Computer Scientist and Mathematican, reviewed the Meyer's "significant misunderstandings of information theory."[48] His review concluded: "Meyer's claims about information are incoherent in places and wildly wrong in others. The people who have endorsed this book, from Thomas Nagel to Philip Skell to J. Scott Turner, uncritically accepting Meyer's claims about information and not even hinting that he might be wrong, should be ashamed."[48]
