ID is bad psuedo-science being used to push a religious view point out of the faith arena by disguising it as science.

They want to pick on evolution and true scientific process, fine, I'll mention one point of their historic faith - the flood in Noah's time. Not where the water came from, not where it went, but how much moved in the alotted time span and the energy required to do this amazing feat. Put simply you'd need 10 ^ 26 joules of energy to do the job; by a few very simple calculations!!! That's the equivalent of unleashing an atomic bomb the size of Nagaski, on every square kilometre of the Earth's surface, every fourteen minutes, for one year...

Now nowhere in the Earth's make up do we see that energy signature from an event 4,200 years ago... I wonder why?

ID shouldn't pick fights with scientists, and especially not mind bogglying dumb fights. I'm glad the supreme court kicked in to scupper IDer's plans before Bush jet propelled them a step closer to reality.
