Intelligent design

Every body has their freedom to their own belifes wether you want to elieve something or not is entirely up to you. On that note if their is scientific evidence to back up a theory such as evolution the school systems will teach it to the students. The ideas of intelligent design however lack the scientific proof that evolution has and is a clear representation of a higher power. To do so would be a very clear violation of our countries seperation between church and state policy. I belive that the requirements for only having to teach evolution. anything else would say that our school systems are teching religion. however schools should be able to give students an understanding of all options includng inteligent design.

I agree. Giving students the ideas that exist is a very good way to go and is a great example of preparation for future teachings. I'm not quite sure it crosses the border of church and state, however. If taught properly, intelligent design isn't the pronunciation of a higher deity creating us. It is simply an option that many could be open to.
