The fact is that those professors who believe in evolution are terrified of debate with competent scientists on the ID side because they know that evolution can't stand on its own merits because it's a theory not a proven scientific fact. If they knew they could win the debate they would say bring it on, instead of trying to shut it down. Do you see any similarities with the global warming wackos who say the global warming debate is over when in fact it is just beginning, and guess what, the global warming wackos are losing big time.

...evolution can't stand on its own merits because it's a theory not a proven scientific fact.

Sorry to have to tell you this, but you are absolutely wrong about the way science works.

No theory is ever proved in science.

Evolution is a theory, and that is the highest level in science. With additional documentation and support, a theory does not graduate to "proved," or "fact" or "law."

The similarities are legion. Debate in both, by those who are skeptical, is not merely refuted, it is treated as heresy. I find that very ironic.
