its only when they teach it in science class as valid science that it threatens the future of the country.

It's most curious that you raise this point. After all, the ID/evolutionary debate is about history, not the future. Ongoing research with any real meaning takes place in labs far removed from this issue. How ID could "threaten the future of the country" is rather mystifying...unless of course the future you envision for the country is one in which a designer is not given any credit for our origins.

"After all, the ID/evolutionary debate is about history, not the future."

The debate is not about history but about whether to teach science as we are best able to observe it or whether to allow politics to prevent new generations from learning about the scientific method and how to explore the world. Frankly, I don't even care if most students take biology at all but if they do they should not be taught that truth is decided by school boards and politics.
