I am a scientist and I agree with Aric2000. Given some scientific evidence for ID I would have no problem with it being taught but since ID is thinly disguised religious dogma it has no place in a science class.

The problem with arguments like this is that neither side can offer the concrete
proof demanded by their opponents. Evolutionists say "Show me God in action." and
creationists say "Show me evolution in action." In neither case was anyone there
to witness the event. The creationists simplistic assertion that the Big
fella did it is a weak cop out. Evolutionists cannot reproduce the alleged
events since nobody will ever live long enough to see the results of the process.

I do not recall the exact number of base pairs in the human genome. It is
around four billion I think, and that averages to about one base pair per year
for each year of earths existence. That to me is more than enough time to
generate the complexity needed. The Urey experiments proved
that amino acids
and other organic molecules could "self synthesize" in the reducing atmosphere of
early earth. All that was needed was methane(carbon and hydrogen), water, and an electric spark(lightning).

Now in my own opinion, Intellegent Design appears to be nothing more that a
King James version of the Bible with the serial numbers filed off; and a
sloppy, incomplete job was done of it.

Evolution is thinly disguised crap dogma. A REAL scientist keeps thinking. You seem to have given up.

Hang in there, science will come around eventually, if we can weed out the dogmatists.
