"How is discussion of a parallel universe scientific if it such a universe can't be observed, measured, falsified, etc., by the standards you fellows have set up for science to follow?"

Ok, fine. As I already said, I don't think parallel universes should be taught. You are the one obsessed with them, when I know of nobody pushing to have them taught.

"Nor do I think much time needs to be spent on discussing a possible designer, but I see no reason to forbid it. "

It's a theological speculation. It belongs in a science classroom just as much as speculations about Xenu do. What you're saying is, if crap science has been introduced into the classroom before, lets let some more crap science in. This is nutty.

Well, I gotta go for now. Duty calls. I appreciate your willingness to discuss this topic without getting angry. I'm sure we'll debate again.
