I say it should be REQUIRED to at least look at ID to get balance in education. I have several books that highlight the problems with evolution and the "anomalies" it can't explain. If you are never exposed to the truth, you won't have an good understanding for yourself except to say, "I know you are, but what am I?", or some other childish retort that dodges the questions. An evolutionist is taught absolution and has no idea that some of their dictum is flawed and questioned by many. The only recourse they have is to to call names of the ID scientists, or just say "your an idiot". They have no intelligent reasoning to counter existing questions that have been unexplained for decades. Almost daily, there are stories in print that declare, "History must be rewritten!". If evolution is settled, then why so many rewrites? To deny a student another explanation that makes sense is just wrong.
Science is supposed to make one think. To deny one possibility without exploring it isn't science. Most people that cringe and deny ID have never explored it.
“..say it should be REQUIRED to at least look at ID ..”
In an Honest debate, that makes sense, AND if ID or Creationism is flawed, then why care if it is presented.
I find the hostility to alternative explanations, DIS- honest in the least.
