I have to say I dislike the idea of intelligent design being taught as an equal to evolution. The main problem I have with the teaching of intelligent design is design seems to be the view point of a small group. Evolution is a more broad, across many people, type of founding for earth. Evolution has a mound of evidence that can be found in the natural tangible world. Another issue I have is why does this one belief get to be taught and not the others. If we teach design why wouldn't we teach the Native American stories, or Hindu, or even the old Greek gods as possible starts of the world. All these ideas have no attachment in physical ways to the physical world. Evolution is the only that has a clear line from the idea to real world.
