ID is a theory that the universe is not just a random happening - that it was created by a power we don't understand and can't explain completely. But I'm sure you know what ID is. And it should be taught as a theory like evolution is. But you know what, it really doesn't matter because those of us who believe in creation will never accept many facets of evolution any more than evolutionists will accept creation. I'm sure you're aware that the majority of Americans believe in creation so it looks like all these years of making sure students are taught evolution have been in large part a waste of everyone's time.

What observations led to the formation of this theory, and what evidence has elevated it to the status of theory? What tests can be done on this theory, and what hypothetical observation would falsify this theory.

But I'm sure you know what ID is.

Not really, because the definition changes depending on the ID supporter that I ask.

And it should be taught as a theory like evolution is.

Only if my previous questions have answers.

But you know what, it really doesn't matter because those of us who believe in creation will never accept many facets of evolution any more than evolutionists will accept creation.

The difference is that those who accept evolution have reason and facts on their side, and the diehard creationists have nothing but dogma, willful ignorance and, in many cases, outright dishonesty.

I'm sure you're aware that the majority of Americans believe in creation so it looks like all these years of making sure students are taught evolution have been in large part a waste of everyone's time.

45% is a "majority"? The Democrats would love that kind of math.
