This topic has two interesting questions.

1. Is ID solely religion (based on faith), science (based on observation, study and experimentation) or a hybrid of the two.

2. Should it be taught in the education system.

Although ID attempts to study and explore the roots of physicality, it is still built on a foundation of religion, which is based on faith. This is the opposite of science. The two systems seem to contadict each other by definition and this is a major concern for people.

Teaching this subject in schools should be treated like scripture. A choice is made wether a child can attend class or not. It should definitely not substitute time allocated for regular class studies!!
