Question: Let's say that out of religious faith one believes that airplanes stay aloft due to prayer and angels, and this should be taught in schools as a valid alternative to aeronautic engineering. The "wing and a prayer" theory. Would you propose that this be taught in engineering school on an equal basis?
This is a non-sequiter.
Airplane theory can be demonstrated more thoroughly than evolution.
If it had the gaps in it like are shown in the fossil record, then you could call on some leaps of faith like the evolutionists do and call it complete science.
Lets say that its not even part of why I said it to begin with. The poster infers that people believing in ID or holding a poosition that it is scientifically supported because chance could not devise what we have come to know, are foolish or ignorant. The poster inferred that simple minds "believe" in such things. My point is that there are are a lot of educated people holding the ID position and to simply be dismissive of them by calling them stupid, foolish or anything in between suggest arrogance in the least.
