That's like discussing alternate "theories" about rain, where one theory is that molecules of water in the atmosphere clump together until they become dense enough to be pull to earth by gravity, and the other is that rain results from the tears of the gods.
The first theory is testable through science. The second one is not a scientific theory at all but an idea that ancient people dreamed up to explain a phenomenon they did not understand. There is no evidence to review, no argument to make, it is purely a belief. The primitive people of the Andaman Islands believe that the earth rests on the top of a gigantic tree, and earthquakes are caused by evil spirits shaking the tree. Under your logic, we could teach that idea in geology class and let students "hear all the arguments" as to the actual cause of earthquakes. But there is no debate. >G, we got to the point where we agreed that ID and Evolution each touch on >the same set of data, that is, the origin of man.

No one's explained that yet. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:189632 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
