500 out of how many?
Ping.
Breaking News? I don't think so. This story has been on Free Republic for a long time.
500 is a pretty large number "going against the grain"
I'm a believer in God and I still don't want this stupid mythology of Intelligent Design taught in a science class. Teach science in a science class. Teach the rest in a philosophy or a religion class.
Let's do a comparison.
Wow you found this post pretty quick! LOL
As did you.
I'm really in no mood for this debate today LOL
Imagine that.
Crap! Does this mean I could be answerable for ultimate things to someone greater than me, besides my wife, of course?
I wonder if someone can just write a script to generate the standard canned responses on both sides of this "debate" if you wnan to call it that - it would save us a lot of time.
Why did they not ask these scientists how many were skeptical of Intelligent Design? Just because you do not believe in Evolution doesn't mean you believe in Intelligent Design does it?
That has nothing to do with the subject of the thread.
There is no mention of classrooms in the article, however since you extrapolated to classrooms, if there is massive dissent on an issue why indoctrinate children to either side?
Would you have supported teaching the geocentric theory, accepted as common sense and good science in its day, against the heliocentric theory?
Methinks so.
Reminisces of what Einstein once said when Hitler came out with '100 scientists against Einstein'.
Einstein replied that if he was wrong, one would be enough.
Of course this Evolution-ID thing is not as clear-cut as the theories of modern physics.
A good idea... but not as fun.
Teaching science also requires one of two things: 1) teach the extremely unscientific nature of the theory of evolution 2) stop teaching evolution as science.
Well, y-a-y for them...
