Re: Should Intelligent Design be taught in science class?
I voted "no" although a moment later I thought I should have voted "no". Its so hard to decide, I think it could be no or no, but I'm not sure.

Re: Should Intelligent Design be taught in science class?
Right now, the poll is tied, 5-5
It will be interesting to see whether or not people are more apt to choose the first, or the second. However, no - intelligent design is not scientific, and thus should not be taught in school, unless to point out the massive flaws.

Since design detection is already taught in archeology, forensic science, cryptology, and copywright infringment, are't we already 4/5 of the way there? There's hope that biology will catch up in a decade or two.

All of these examples a known creator is the thing to be compared against. "Design detection" is also more likely patern recognition..not a theologically based dogma.

The "known creator" is generally termed an intelligent agent. Design detection compares the output of Chance, Natural law, and an Intelligent Agent and determines in any given instance which of the three is the cause. (did that piece of rock get shaped that way by chance, or did an intelligent agent shape it?) (did that person slip and fall or were they pushed) (did that functionally integrated, irreducibly complex micro machine arise by chance or was an intelligent agent involved?) All look at the observable data and draw a conclusion. Agreed, this is not theologically based dogma.
I wouldn't however confuse pattern recognition with design detection. Natural forces can produce ice or salt, but these repetitive, non information/non message bearing patterns are not the result of intelligent design.
