Yes I hope this policy that requires a student to hear a statement about Intelligent Design before each class lessons would not be bad for the students to hear. We must remember Charles Darwin Theory is "not a fact" has inexplicable "gaps" and should refers students to a textbook "Of Pandas and People" for more information about the concept, then let the students decide, what they want to believe would be a good Ideal especially if they did this on their own.

Talk about gaps...

I took a look into this Pandas book. Apparently it violates nearly every debating fallacy ever conceived of, and the author himself has stated that entire chapters of the book were fabricated. Hey, I know! Let's tell children it's nonfiction and see how many we can fool!

I think I'm going to be sick.

I truly think the students should hear the statement about Intelligent Design in class before they talk about evolution every time. The students could be referred to any material of books the internet or any place.

What would happen if a student in class wanted to debate in class Evolution and Intelligent Design. Would that be allowed, it should be allowed I think. If the student wants to read something out of class what is the big deal, then debated in class I would see no problem at all.

Would the scientific community be in such a up roar about.

What would you do if they taught The Theory of Everything in class if a when it does get in the classroom. That theory might just prove the existence of a god. Now could that be taught in class and why or why not.

I don't think science teachers should be teaching fairy tales.

My local school board passed a rule that:

1) anyone discussing intelegent design must also cover all other reliogious theories as equally valid. Examples of 4 or 5 native american traditions, hindu, aborgine and other traditions were explicetly included.

2) They must also lecture that Gravity - like evolution is a theory

So far no one has even tried to bring up "intellegent design"

Scools should teach both as distinct possibilities, and neether as proven fact.

Actaully, it could even be the case that a combination of the 2 is the actaul case

I think intelligent design is meant to make our children stupid.

They want to teach children a fairy tale instead of scientific truth. What if they began teching astrology to kids instead of mathematics? Wouldn't you think whoever was behind it was trying to hurt kids? They need mathematics. They need to understand evolution.

First of all, intelligent design isn't a theory, it's about poking holes in another theory - evolution. Creating a reasonable doubt about that theory. All intelligent design people try to do is create doubt about evolution - fine enough - but just so that they can substitute their completely non-scientific theory - that it's all bible based - in it's place. That's not teaching science

An intelligent desiner of the Human race woodnt necessarily have to be divine - its not COMPLETELY bible based. And, it is a distinct possibility, just not an alternative to natural selection, which we know happens because we see it going on around us. The intelligent desine theery in its most viable form coexists with natural selection.

Ive said it before and Ill say it again if they teach evolution and the big bang theory they also should also say that every spontonous reaction increases the disorder in the universe.
