Scientists can be shockingly dogmatic about pet theories/concepts.

What might be wrong with some science does not make "intelligent design" right. The theory of evolution has held up quite well. And, as a theory, it is not a final answer, it is an evolving (ba-du-bum) concept.

Even the name - "Intelligent design" - assumes a creator. That certainly can't be scientifically proven. ID relies on a religious text to attempt to make a scientific argument.

Which "evolving concept" should we teach as fact? I am willing to have evolution taught as an "evolving concept" as long as the evolving concepts of ID are presented as well. That's all we ask. We want a free and open debate.
