But here you've missed the boat entirely. Being a taxpayer and wrong
doesn't connote anything more than being a taxpayer. There is still a
responsibility to provide correct education to the student--that's under
the section of oaths for public officials that deals w/ prudent
stewardship of public monies. Wasting such public funds on
pseudo-science is not such stewardship.
The problem is that ID is not obviously true or false and for that matter,
neither is science. Both can only be argued on philosophical (and perhaps
utilitarian) grounds. No absolute winner can ever be demonstrated. Hence
ID is legitimately entitled to as much traction as the scientific belief system.
Well since you didn't write that ID is entitled totraction within
the scientific 'belief system' it sure looks like you recognize
ID as a non-science.
I hope that is as you indended.
What I should have said is: "Science as currently constituted with
its present first propositions."
