I have no problem with ID and evolution being equal partners in education.

I do -- why would you want to give students such a false impression? They very much are *NOT* equal disciplines. "ID: isn't even a science, and has, last time I checked, no evidence supporting it (note: Alleged evidence against evolution is in no way positive support *for* ID.)

Actually, as a thinking human being, I don't think one can separate the two.

How do you figure that?

So, what's your intense interest in the subject?

Evolution is under heavy attack by creationists/IDers, so someone has to step up to defend it from the propaganda and lawsuits.

I'm asking an honest question to you and I'm not a troll, crackpot, half-wit, or incurable ignoramus.

And you've got an honest answer. A more detailed description of the situation can be found in this post of mine in response to a similar question.

"How do you figure that? "

It allows him to imply that those of us who do separate the two are nonthinking humans.

Nothing is "proven" in evolution. It takes as much faith as "creationism".

What I'm addressing is that the ideas work together. If you just refuse to recognize the possibilty of ID and are an atheist...just say so.

You "scientific" people are a hoot, no kidding.

Study another science. Mathematics. Tell me the mathematic probability of what you all stand for...talk about faith...hah.

All I'm saying is ID and Evolution can certainly go hand and hand...if you deny a Creator, well then tell me, be honest. If you think that when you die, you are gone from history forever, why bother to put forth your ideas?

He is not separated from science...it seems you want science separated from Him. Not possible.
