"Only that such a thing is belief and not science."

Science is based on and inseparable from philosophy and natural faith.

"He only said ID was not science and should not be taught as such."

Math is also not science (at least not a natural science). Should we keep math out the science class too?

Evolutionists act like their version of reality is so self evident, we have to be blind not to see it. This is the worst kind of dogmatism, and has always served to slow the progress of science rather than enable it.

Great scientists appreciate the importance of epistemology.

Science is based upon the scientific method, which includes observation and reproducibility of results. Until we can create another universe ex nihilo in the lab, the questions of who or what is behind creation is not one for the field of science.

Yes, we should keep math out of science class. This is idiotic. Math is repeatable and reproducible. It is science.

Believing in a Creator (which I do) is not science.
