Bobby, your site is amusing, and I can agree that ID does not belong in science classes. However, I also believe that Evolution does not belong in science classes for much the same reason. Let’s stick to chemistry, physics and biology based on the scientific theory.

That’s basically like saying, “Yah, I don’t think the deleterious effects of comma splices should be taught in English classes–just capitalization and punctuation.”
Evolution is a scientific “theory”. It is one that can be quite readily observed in much of the natural world except in humans. Strangely enough it seems humans are devolving rather than evolving if you look at all the closed minded idiots in the world today who think religion is the answer to everything.
err dave
….biology based on the scientific theory…..= evolution.
RAmen
evolution has been observed on many different scales, micro and macro… it been proven many times before…
evolution has been proven, not just fantasised and fabricated out of thin air like the theory of ID
What parts of physics, chemistry and biology do you think will offend the religious any *less* than Darwin’s work? D’you think that, say, string theory leaves room for God? Nope, no God in there. How about thermodynamics? Nope, no God required. Gravity? No, no God required.

Darwin’s just an easy-to-misunderstand, great big obvious target, is all. Removing Darwin from the science class wouldn’t solve a thing.
An amazing example of evolution are the all these bacteria’s that are now antibiotic resistant. I’m sure everyone has heard of super bugs.

Just what *is* your reason for disallowing ID, then? See, mine would be that it’s bad science, a claim that I’d back up by pointing to its small number of genuine scientific proponents, their apparent religious biases, the way their theories have been quite convincingly ripped to bits by other scientific thinkers and the way they seem often to have supported the attacks on their own theory by backtracking. Whereas evolution goes from strength to strength with every new stroke of the spade into the fossil record.

Perhaps you are making a very astute distinction which you have cleverly hidden somewhere within the word ‘much’. What is it, please?
