If evolution is fact, it will easily withstand the challenges posed by ID. If it is bunk, you would think scientists would be the first to want to know. The way to win is to learn more, and the way to learn more is to meet challenges as they arise. Free speech is all about letting the best ideas prevail.

Rehm is one of 11 people from Dover, a small town south of Harrisburg, who want to block their school board from requiring the reading of that four-paragraph statement that criticizes evolutionary theory. The statement notes that "intelligent design" offers an alternative theory for the origin and evolution of life -- namely, that life in all of its complexity could not have arisen without the help of an intelligent hand.<<

OOOH a four paragraph statement is the end of evolutionary theories. Imagine that, criticism of a theory. I'm with you. If it it so weak that pointing a student to an ID book to study out of class is terrible, it is a theory ahead of its evidence.

ID has yet to pose a scientific challenge.
