Re: Intelligent Design...
Its difficult to agree on the definition of science itself, but googling gave me this one which I agreed to somewhat -
"Systematized knowledge derived from observation, study, and experimentation carried on in order to determine the nature or principles of what is being studied."
As an example - When I say that a apple from a tree falls on the ground. This is not science.
But when I say apple from a tree falls on the ground because of the gravitational pull between the apple and earth then it is science.
Or when I say there were Saber tooth tigers in the ancient times then it is not science, but when I say there were Saber Tooth Tigers in prehistoric times and proove it with some evidence then it is science.
Since intelligent design does not show evidence of anything nor it prooves anything by theoritical formula so I believe it should not be taught as science in schools. Although I do believe it is an interesting subject, but definitely not science.
There are proofs that evolution happens. We have seen this evolutions in case of Bird Flu.
