Re: Branching Off

There is no scientific controversy. The only controversy is religious and/or philosophical. So if we want to teach the ~~philosophy~~controversy, that should be done in religious or philosophy classes, not in science classes.

Re: Teleological arguments

ID is not science because it does not follow the scientific method.

ID is creationism because its proponents say that it is creationism.

These are two unrelated points.

Re: And Should it be Taught in Our Schools?

So here is the problem that I see: This systematic suppression of ID is nothing less than coercion.

I haven't seen any evidence of this alleged "systematic suppression". What I have seen are objections to putting it in the science classroom (where it does not belong).
