It's just a typical evo thread, then.

I actually see little wrong with what the Dover Board did. Per the article, they aren’t teaching creationism, they are mentioning ID. I have a school-age textbook that mentions that evolution is not universally accepted, citing belief in Genesis-style creation as an alternative. If that’s all that happens, I see little problem.

Heck, maybe creationist arguments should be mentioned more in school, so the science teacher can point out the blatant flaws in most of them!

But the not unfounded suspicion is that there will be mission creep on the part of creationists. First ID gets a mention, then it’s taught as a full-blown competing theory in a science class. That is not acceptable for scientific teaching unless ID can come up with a theory that follows the scientific method.
