Intelligent design is not science and does not belong in a biology class.
Intelligent design cannot be proven or dis-proven.
True or not it is not science. Philosophy, yes. History, yes. Theology, of course. Science, no. There are no two, equal sides. There’s science and religion. We should be far removed from this sort of discussion by now. It’s been almost 150 years since Darwin published The Origin of Species. That’s a lot of progress to ignore. This discussion is ridiculous, I have no problem with intelligent design (I have lots of problems with creationism...) though I feel that it’s an attempt by otherwise rational people to explain evolution in biblical terms. I’ve already given this more time than it deserves.
