Intelligent Design...

[Repo]

There is an argument going on in America's schools; it is not about class size, nor about teachers pay, it is about the theory of evolution. Many of the religious conservative right don't believe in the theory of evolution, nor the idea that they may have evolved from apes. Now in fairness to them, they may not have, after all their very belief suggests that they are still thinking like they have a monkey brain and show little signs that they actually did evolve. Most intelligent life accepts the idea that all things evolve including mankind, in our case most recently from apes. The religious fanatics want schools to mention the idea of intelligent design when teaching the theory of evolution. Intelligent design is a rewrite of creationism, proposing that the universe with all its complexities would have to have been designed from an intelligent higher power. The religious right wants intelligent design mentioned in school classes. Since religion cannot be taught in public schools, they spray painted creationism a little and came up with intelligent design, a newer, more colorful version of God and religion that they want to sneak into science class. Unfortunately for them science requires more than an idea but some science behind it to actually be science. The idea that everything comes from an intelligent design is actually an intelligent design to ram religion into schools under a false pretense. The false pretense that there is science to the intelligent design premise however they show no facts or studies on which to base the premise of intelligent design. The only thing to support their belief of intelligent design is faith and as we all know faith is a belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence, something that science does. Hence intelligent design is not something to be taught in public schools...

Since the government and the courts have come to the understanding that public schools should not teach about God and or religion. The teaching of intelligent design or the belief that the universe, the Earth and everything on it including each of us were designed from an intelligent higher power could only be taught if that intelligent higher power was not God. That would mean that should they allow schools to teach intelligent design, they would have to teach that the universe, the Earth and everything on it including each of us were designed by a highly intelligent alien life form. Now there is no proof to back that idea up but if they dig around on Mars and find some ancient ruins under all that red dust, they just may find some proof of where we came from and then I may too be for teaching intelligent design. As Mr. Spock might say, the idea that man's roots may have originated from Mars would then be a logical conclusion. The religious right may not like the thought but we may be the intelligent design of the Martian race. One man's God is another life form's scientist...
