I've been on board long before it was called ID.

May we take that as a confession that 'ID' is indeed plain old religious Creationism, but re-branded for another go at the science curriculum? Some of the ID proponents have been trying to persuade me that ID isn't 'religion by the backdoor,' as the 'Intelligent Designer' could be aliens from another planet (I'm not kidding)

I meant that I came to believe in concepts similiar to ID long before it was called that. BUT yes, I would say that it is another form of creationism. But it does differ from some forms of creationism. Creationism does have many different versions. It differs in that it allows for longer development as opposed to some who believe the Earth is just 6000 years old. I seriously didn't mind studying evolution in school. It only strengthened my notion that there was indeed organization so that probably someone designed it.

I don't really want to go into the teaching evolution debate. But I'll just say this, I don't mind ID being mentioned. Nor do I mind evolution being taught. People go too much into a tizzy on both sides. My real feeling is that nobody really knows exactly so it's not a big deal to me.
