Yeah, keep the concept, but dump the religion. For all we know, we're someone's science fair experiment.

>>But what disturbs me about this whole case is labelling all of "ID" in it's many variants as religious. I think that sets bad precedent and is too wide of a ruling.

If one accepts that there is a controlling force (CF) in life, it would appear from the evolutionary evidence that the speed at which CF operates is quite slow, limited to the ability to change DNA, replicate the experiment to a meaningful sample size, and learn from the results.

From what I've read, almost all variations of ID are religious, and universally reject evolution as a theory for the origin of life. Perhaps I'm wrong. Regardless, I tend to agree with the school board. Schools need to present plausible, scientifically-tested theory, not "well it could have happened this way" ideas.
