Fish magically turning into birds is pretty superstitious IMO.
And this has what, exactly, to do with the ToE?

But that's a bit off topic I guess. The question is about ID Tal. How would you propose we teach it in schools? I think it would be a very quick lesson plan (Godditit) followed by a very short exam (Answer = Goddidit).

That's better than (dirtdidit) followed by a very short exam (Answer = dirtdidit).
Ahhh...but you see, we in science never, ever make this claim, where as my earlier response (Goddidit) IS a claim made by creationists and IDists. It's the entire basis of their (your) argument.
​
I do, however, look forward to you explaining exactly how a lesson plan for teaching ID would look. Sorry, but I'm just giddy with excitement over this prospect, so let me at least ask this: Will you be proposing that it be taught in a science class room?

On a lighter note...Dean says No to ID
Did anyone else watch "Face the Nation" this past Sunday? Howard Dean was the guest, and among the other valid points he made, he addressed a question about teaching ID in school. He said flat out that it is not science and in no way belongs in a science classroom. He went on a bit about how it would affect our science curriculum and the potential consequences of looking like a nation of scientific buffoons (my words, not his). All it all, it was nice to see a politician stand up for once and say, without hesitation, that ID/creationism is NOT science...that it's purely a religious endeavor and should be kept out of our science classrooms.

Go Howard...give em hell!

Well it's a good thing that that's not what evolution say then isn't it?

That is EXACTLY what evolution says.
Either show us, Tal, where the ToE makes this claim or retract this statement.

Here's a link to another great bit of science that I'm sure our President would want taught in our science classrooms...right along side ID.
