So if we teach ID, we will all become Muslims? Quite a stretch but I guess you have to continually think of new arguments against ID.

You provided the response:

Non-responsive answer.
And you know it.
Bt I'm glad you gave me a chance to repeat my statement in order to clarify for the lurkers:
In many fundamentalist Islamic countries evolution is not taught because someone there seems to think that it somehow detracts from Allah. You will note how many brilliant scientists are not coming out of those countries today.
A great majority of Christians can accept both Creation and evolution.
A noisy minority can't and want to replace the science in science classes with religion.
Guess what the effect will be if we let them succeed.
