The only way for one side to have its views reflected in the official curriculum is at the expense of the other side. Totally incorrect. The correced version is as follows:
The only outcome evolutionists will accept is to have its views reflected in the official curriculum at the expense of the other side.>
They absolutely DO NOT want to allow ANYTHING other than evolution to be taught in schools.

Would you rather have a bird crap into your nose?

If our noses were turned up, we'd all drown when it rains. That's intelligent design.

The only outcome evolutionists will accept is to have its views reflected in the official curriculum at the expense of the other side.There are too many PhDs and careers riding on evolution's monopoly. From the perspective of the evolutionists, this has less to do with "science," and is really more of a turf battle.

Evolution is not a science to so many -- it is their religion, or world view. It's a visceral issue for them. They are evangelistic and zealous. It is a means to act out their adolescent rebellions.
The sceince is really of no consequence, it is about the Bible and God etc...Using evolutionary theory is just a means.
It harms actual science more than anything for them to distort and make an idol of it.

No, they just want to limit science classes to actual science. They're funny that way.

Our noses are placedupsidedown in the middle of our faces so that when we have colds, snot can run down right toward our mouths. What's intellegent about that?
But when you duck your head underwater your nose functions like a snorkel. Maybe God just intended us to swim. :)

But why does everyone assume that we must settle it through an ideological death-match in the town square? Because proponents of ID are making 100's of millions of dollars per year selling their programs to the public.
To: Blood of Tyrants
They absolutely DO NOT want to allow ANYTHING other than evolution to be taught in schools. Incorrect. We scientists want only science taught in science classrooms, of which evolution is one branch of science. ID can be taught, but it it's proper context - philosophy or comparative religion.

To: MRMEAN
I was taught, in a Jesuit school, that evolution and Creationism (Genesis) actually reinforce each other, at least on the metaphorical level. It is probably the most profound lesson I learned in high school.
The whole ID debate bores me.
To: tallhappy
The sceince is really of no consequence, it is about the Bible and God etc... Totally wrong. Do you actually know any scientists who have studied evolution or are you just blowing smoke?
