I am a christian, but don't support teaching intellegent design in school. I also believe in micro-evolution. Besides that, I don't know how one would teach ID.
"Someone made you."
I don't want to pay teachers for that. It is important to know the ins and outs of evolution even if you disavow it. Always makes for better debate if you know what your talking about.
All options presented in the "poll" are bogus. There can be no reason to present "intelligent design" as science under any circumstances. To do so would be analogous to saying that grafitti should taught in English class as "literature".
Huh? People indeed DO want to present ID as science.
That's because they have reasons for it.
If you're saying that those reasons are not reasonable - then I agree with you...
I don't have an issue with your question. Your selection of possible responses is lacking, though. To be an accurate reflection of opinion, you would have needed an option something along the lines of:
"My religious affiliation aside, ID should not be forced into science classrooms because it simply is not science"
If you read that wiki link, I bet you probably did cover some of those philosophies in science. Maybe not, but I bet you did.
Anyway, thanks for taking a stab at it.
Are you kidding me? Science has a philosophy to it? You mean it starts off with presuppositions of it's own? This is totally ridiculous, science is entirely unbiased like me...it's that openness to unseen causes that is only biased.
