the whole idea behind intelligent design is that some intelligent force is responsible for evolution rather than evolution being a process of elimination where the strong survive and the weak die out. as a recent federal judge has ruled, intelligent design is not science so you can't teach it in a science class. teach it anywhere else you want but not in a science class unless you have some research and facts and data to support it.
the part that has me grinning like the Cheshire cat is the fact that all this emphasis on intelligent design bring about some other questions. the people lobbying for the teaching of intelligent design aren't allowed to make any religious connections so then the question becomes, who' intelligence is behind human evolution. after all several people believe that human evolution was in fact begun and shaped by extraterrestrials(aliens) so is the religious body ready to accept that as a viable possibility for the grand architect of human evolution? Also would they agree that there are other planets out there that were similarly designed?
