More than some. I would say most of us here agree with him.

Yes, but I'm concerned that the fight against the version of ID that is a thinly veiled excuse for teaching creationism, is blinding science to the very real possibility that some intelligent being(s) could have had a hand in the development of life on earth. Seeing as how current science, given $20-30 million dollars, could almost certainly engineer single celled organisms to survive and evolve in the Martian environment, it is entirely possibly that life on earth was seeded and perhaps even further guided by an outside intelligence. That doesn't answer the question of where that outside intelligence came from (perhaps billions and billions of years of evolution from the utterly inexplicable "Big Bang"), but is relevant to understanding both our own biological situation on earth, and our own potential for spreading life around our little corner of the universe -- both very appropriate topics for scientific education and research.

Might does not make right.

Darwinism has absolutely no inherent right to be taught as the sole theory explaining life.

Once that is understood science can be liberated from its shackles.
