I.D. is a position, just as Darwinian evolution is a position. The Pa. issue is/was the exclusivity of evolutionism. In the Scopes trial, the issue was the exclusivity of creationism. To maintain modern elitist dogma, evolutionists want to censor (keep from students) data that may suggest the i.d. position so now the roles are reversed. Now who wants to deny science?

Nothing is preventing IDers from presenting their theories in Scientific journals and subject them to Peer Review. That's what it takes to be taken seriously in the world of Science...not pressuring local school boards.

Have you looked at the 'textbook' the IDers recommended in Dover?Of Panda's and People'claimed, for example, that the skeleton of the Tasmanian Tiger was almost identical with that of the Gray Wolf, an idiotic contention that a child could rebut. Here's a review of the 'ID' text the Dover was promoting by Kevin Padian, an expert in palaeontology.

In a nutshell: the 'data' you speak of either don't exist or are fabricated.
