Evolution including the intelligent design variant of it should remain with the sciences.

Darwinism should be taught as part of the religion and philosophy curriculum.

You are one mixed up puppy!

Intelligent design is an offshoot of creation "science" made necessary when the Supreme Court in the late 1980s tossed it out of the schools for being religion.

In order to circumvent that ruling, {poof!}, ID is hatched. The Wedge Strategy lays out the entire plan.

On the other hand, science has roundly castigated ID for not being science. So, I think your claim that ID is a variant of evolution is properly debunked.

Then you cite Darwinism as religion and philosophy. You can make any claim about Darwinism you want, as I don't know anyone who does science who falls in that category. I know a couple of paleoanthropologists and biologists, and I have read the works of a lot of other 'ologists, but not a one of them claims to be a Darwinist. When I studied evolution and related matters in grad school, I never once heard the term "Darwinist" in six years of study.

I think you are arguing from religious conviction rather than anything that has to do with science.

Perhaps when you make these claims which are contradicted by science, you could just preface them with "My religion tells me..." If you do that, none of the scientists on these threads will bother to rebut you. But when you make what appear to be scientific claims based only on your religious beliefs, you can expect to be challenged.

They were so brazen, they even laid out their entire plot on an anti ID website.
