"What matters to this nut is that the people who want ID openly express their faith. "
And a biology class in public school is not a proper place for their expressing it. There is no lack of suitable avenues - theology classes, comparative religion courses, seminaries, sunday schools and the like. Thus I would not call him a nut.

The proponents of ID being religiously motivated has nothing to do with whether or not it is scientific.

Evolution as an explanation of the multitude of species begs the question of origin of life such that most young students who have been exposed to it think it covers the issue of origins.

ID contains the only current scientific hypothesis for the origin of life.
