i've sort of stayed away from this since Intelligent design became the topic.
IN US--a court case ruled that intelligent design is not science (the standard that Intellegent desing proponents hold for hold for "sciencetific theory" would allow astrology, (yes, astrology) to be called a science. (so what sign are you?--don't you believe (and that is KEY WORD Intelligent Design is based on UNPROVEN BELIEF--(ie religion) not on PROVE ABLE FACTS )in the stars?
Intelligent design is psuedo science, it is religion mascarading as science. it was developed to get around the law (and it failed) that prohibits the teaching of religion or religious beliefs in US schools.
you can check out the PBS web side, (i think it was a 2 part NOVA broadcast but it might have been FrontLine.. (it was broadcast earlier this year.)
there are mountains of evidence that the term intellegent design was chose to mis represent faith as fact.
