I do believe that God created the earth; the solar system; Adam; Eve; lots
of plants and animals. I also believe that he created within each plant
and animal the ability to adapt (micro-evolution) to various envir.
conditions. I believe the evolutionists are right in much of what they
write about micro-evolution. The mistake they make is when they make the
giant leap. They say that because micro-evolution is true, therefore
macro-evolution is true. The IDers (myself included) don't make the giant
leap. We simply say that an ID created life and all matter. I still
believe that we should teach both evolution and ID in the public school
system. Both are excellent theories. Believe it or not, over sixty per
cent of the people in America (according to a recent pole) believe that
both ID and evolution should be taught in the public school system.

Alright, name somebody who *isn't* a committed Christian (I'll accept
members of any other religiion) and I'll recognise that ID *isn't* just
a piece of Christian doctrine with a white coat on pretending to be
science.

As for the American public, I forget how many percent it was (but it
was over 50%) who believed that 'if dolphins were intelligent, they'd
be able to get out of tuna nets.' Does that really prove anything? Well
No. So why mention it? I could ask the same about your poll quote...

BTW, I'm not an American, and am definitely an agnostic.
