If the parents don't like ID being simply addressed in the class, or a disclaimer about the ToE mentioned, then they have the option to pull their kids out and homeschool them. The same option that is offered to creationists/Christians every time they object to what the schools are doing. It does work both ways. Why should "evolution/no creation" be taught and if you don't like it go somewhere else be OK and not creation/ no eovlution not be treated the same way. If the parents in the district want creation or ID to be addressed, then those who object can find other options for their kids.

If parents want ID labels on their textbooks, they have the option of pulling their kids out of public school and homeschooling them. While kids are in compulsory public schools, supported by taxes, and run by elected schoolboards, we're likely to want to continue to insist that science textbooks concentrate exclusively on science and not spend any time touting for God.
