I wonder if the heliocentric theory followed a similar process toward acceptance?

Do you think the Pope prays for the sunrise to happen everyday? When he gets sick, he goes to the doctor.

Actually, I discuss ID briefly when I teach evolution, because someone is bound to ask about it. I explain that many scientists believe in the Creator, but so far ID has a big problem - the lack of a testable hypothesis.

I also mention that anyone who can come up with a testable hypothesis for ID will probably be famous...so far no one argues about that, although it does provoke some thought & discussion....
