Well, I'm not a big pusher of ID because I homeschool and teach my children Biblical truth. But don't gloat so quickly, my Godless friend. ID, I think, was only developed to demonstrate the weakness of Darwinism. And in that, it has succeeded brilliantly. It's proponents have shown that the same attacks on it (it's not really science because it's not falsifiable, it's a philosophy rather than science, etc.) also apply to evolution. You may think you are winning, but I believe you have already lost.

And, BTW, our homeschool has Darwin as required reading. We're not afraid of the debate.

Let the name-calling begin . . .

Good screen name selection.

Teaching kids 3000 year old creation myths under the guise of science is a bad thing to do to them.

But kids usually find their own way eventually, anyway.

Okay, I'll bite. What hypothetical discovery would prove ID false?
