"As usual the atheists, liberal kooks are up in arms over this, overreacting as usual."
This is like teaching that the world is flat or that the sun orbits the earth. ID is a relic of the dark ages.
I find it absurd that someone puts their faith in lies dressed up to look like science instead of putting their faith directly in their religion. I think people who choose to do that are weak in faith and easily taken in by the scam artists promoting ID.

Again repeating it, this is only a discussion about ID and not a call for it to be adapted in to the science curriculum. Only a fool imo is unable to distinguish the issue.

Actually, I thought the same about the religion of evolution. At what point will this "belief" be abandoned, and why is it held so dearly?
Finally, while there is no mention of religion or theology in the Bible, it's principles are the basis for human freedom. I do not see, frankly, how conservatives come to their core views (constitutional adherence) without faith in God. How else can "endowed by their Creator" be reconciled ? This is, again, in my opinion, the foundational premise "truth" from which all else in our system of government flows. Without this, laws are made by men, reconciled to nothing, and we are slaves.
Granted, uncharateristically long rant .
