What's amazing is that religious fundamentalists seek to elevate themselves by promoting the "science" of ID, while they denigrate science by calling it "religious".
Maybe just a case of "science envy"?
Here we go again.
If they could burn the ID heretics at the stake, they would.
Ok, I'll bite. How does one incorporate a reference to the supernatural in a scientific inquiry? Just stick a little parenthetical in saying "here a miracle occurs" and hope no one notices?
Too bad. IDers have made the fatal mistake of trying to graft a non-scientific idea onto science. Then they complain when scientists oppose their nonsense. ID is going down. It's only a matter of time.
So you want this taught? I have a few others I could post if you are truly interest in "all the evidence." Let me know.
The Ancient One, known as Unkulunkulu, is the Zulu creator. He came from the reeds (uthlanga, means source) and from them he brought forth the people and the cattle. He created everything that is: mountains, streams, snakes, etc. He taught the Zulu how to hunt, how to make fire, and how to grow food. He is considered to be the First Man and is in everything that he created.
We? This one ain't for the ping list.
The sad thing is that Christianity, which I think is a great philosophy on how to live life, will be damaged because a few of them are pushing this idiotic ID junk.
They're shooting themselves in the foot, and they don't know it.

Darwinist Kenneth Miller Concedes Dr. Behe's brand of design is NOT young-earthism as Darwinist fundamentalists always try to paint design as. Also, he conceded that the error in the design book Of Pandas and People that he pointed out yesterday was corrected in later editions. He also tried to paint design as disguised creationism, which it is not. And so on...
Here you go.
Their franchise is threatened. Their Grants. Their status.
How does one incorporate a reference to the supernatural in a scientific inquiry?
That is NOT what intelligent design theory is all about. We are NOT talking about a SUPERNATURAL designer. But a designer. Once one goes beyond nature into supernature you are beyond the realm of science. But ID scientists DO NOT make any assumptions about the nature of the designer but make the assumption that molecular machines appear to be designed - hence there is most likely a designer of some intelligence behind these machines. The designer may be dead - some being or beings who has died or the designer could be supernatural - a deity. But the nature of the designer is NOT what is at issue - it is whether molecular machines, DNA and its program are designed or not designed based on information theory and other scientific assumptions about when something is designed verses when something has come about by blind luck.
150 years? Yer stupid and stuck. Can't wait to hear your deathbed pleas to Him. (or maybe you think that when you die, that's it?)
Have fun in this world. It's all you'll ever know.

Think "the people [should] decide" what is taught?
LOL.
