Violation of Separation of Church and State here. Fire the teacher.
Intelligent design is not a scientific theory and treating it as such is a travesty.
And if evolution doesn't work without 'Intelligent guidance' explain to me the success of genetic algorithms. Does God intervene there too ? We know the FSM likes to tamper with scientific results, but what about Jah ?

Evolution is not a scientific theory - it fails to meet the rules of the scientific method which are necessary to become a legitimate scientific theory.Originally Posted by doc_bean
Yet most people want the non-scientific theory of evolution to be taught simply because it happens to agree with their personal anti-God mindset.
Navaros is right in one regard - it is the teacher's job to indoctrinate the kids. The only real difference here is that he's introducing ideas that aren't part of the designated group of notions which every good and honest citizen "should" accept as truth. I don't care if he was talking about Yeshua or time travel through autoerotic nipple-twisting; the man wasn't doing his job (read: sticking to official curriculum) and that's the only standard to which his behaviour can truly be measured.

I don't really have a problem with teaching I.D. along with Evolution, but thats for Science not 11th Grade History!

Have you just been dumped?
I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.
ID isn't science. If the "theory" is that some higher power made stuff and could make anything there's nothing to it but faith. A real theory should not only have an idea about what happens but what isn't LIKELY to happen.Originally Posted by Marshal Murat
