No, I mean much more than that... I thought we just established that teaching god in science class makes no sense at ALL in any case because, 1.) It wouldn't be science anyway, and 2.) who's 'god' do you teach?

No problem there.

No, it's because of the 'company' ID keeps, and it hasn't been presented in a a scientific manner... btw, I mis-stated in my part I meant to say ID DOES make some sense to me. You don't have to be an "wacky atheist scientist" to dismiss ID being taught, you just have to note that it hasn't gained enough credibility to replace anything yet. Hence ALMOST ALL SCIENTISTS currently would agree NOT to teach it.

All sorts good science takes time to replace the older science. That's just the way it is... and actually the RUSH and intenseness of the religious groups to embrace ID simply polarizes the other side, as it is clearly NOT science that those folks are concerned with. :) Too bad.


Actually I see ID as more a philosophy of science issue. And there s/b a place for that in universities - I note many of the atheist contingent are actaully philosophers of science or historians of science - Dennett and Forrest and Shermer, for example.
