When Hannah Maxson started an intelligent design club at Cornell University last fall, a handful of science majors showed up for the first meeting. Today, the high-profile club boasts more than 80 members.
Until recently, the nationwide debate over whether intelligent design should be taught alongside evolution was centered primarily in public elementary and high-school science classes. In Dover, Pa., for example, parents won a legal fight against a school board decision to teach intelligent design in biology classes. A new school board formally ditched the intelligent design curriculum Tuesday (Jan. 3).
Now the discussion is spilling over onto university campuses. At nearly 30 public and private universities across the country, students have started clubs aimed at promoting intelligent design.

Nope. I'd like you to focus on helping accomplish what you have in common with secular conservatives, rather than on policies that will drive us out of the GOP instead.
Not necessarily, you probably scare as many people away from the Republican party as you bring in.
But on the flip side, without the fiscal/South park (or whatever else you may call them) conservatives the Republicans wouldn't even last as long as the Reform party.
as does yours, it requires stipulation of "given rise to"/supreme intelligence from complete unitellingence as a stipulation.
if the only source of logic (formal, excepted or otherwise), is the human mind then it is by definition subjective.
I see you violate the very "logic" you are trying to use by appealling to authority. "excepted". and some circular "deductive reason", using logic to prove the validity of logic..or deductive reasoning to prove the vality of deductive reasoning. so whos logic are you using, original source please.
