Thanks for the ping. I share the same views as you. I also concur with a newer member's view that ID could, perhaps, be introduced as a part of a philosophy curriculum.
I never had a philosophy course in high school. I don't know how many public schools have such courses. No problem with me if it's included in such a course. However, it's been demonstrated rather conclusively that what's called ID today is really just a disguised form of creationism. That got spelled out quite clearly in the Dover litigation: Kitzmiller et al. v Dover Area School District et al.
Whatever ID may be, it's not yet science. They don't do research, they don't publish any results in scientific journals. Biotech firms don't hire ID researchers -- and they would if they thought anything could come of such work. The ID people don't have anything scientific to show for all their public relations efforts. If ID ever develops into a science, I think it should be in a science class. Until then, it's just an idea -- a lovely idea, but not science.
