Why do evolution and ID have to be an either/or choice? To the Christian who can't deal with evolution, I would ask: How do you deal with the concept of the Trinity? One God, or three? You can accept the fact that you don't understand it, can't you?
To the scientist, I would ask: What is light? A particle or a wave?
Scientists do not oppose ID because it is wrong. They oppose it because it is impossible for it to be wrong.
There is no possible way to demonstrate that any given phenomenon or state of being is not the result of outside, invisible intervention.
The only thing of interest to science is whether a process can be the result of regular, ongoing rules.
