Since many don't consider ID science but still feel it better explains our existence, would it be asking to much to include the discussion somewhere in the glorious "diversity" of our so progressive curriculumActually I have no problem with science classes making a mention of ID. A few minutes discussion would suffice. Then leave it alone.

I don't have a problem with it being taught in science class or being discussed and debated in a social studies class either. But my point is that we are not diverse in our education, we refuse to confront issues such as race, religion and science in an intellectually honest way. My point is that the question of existence is THE question for all times and should be included in all curriculum's if that curriculum is to be considered truly liberal. The "science" only argument on the surface may hold water but the motivation behind it IMO is affront to real education. Do they emphasize any of the pitfalls of the theory of evolution or is taught as fact? Intellectual honesty is rare in todays utopia.
