The real problem, mrnoodle, is not intelligent design as you see it. The majority of Christians see it your way, that 'science is busy figuring out God's incredibly complex design, and though they'll never get all the way there it is worth it to the species to try to understand the mysteries.' You'd be surprised how many high-level scientists actually do believe in God, insomuch as it explains the consistent patterns found in the universe through science.

The PROBLEM is people who believe intelligent design is literally, exactly the way it is in the Bible. 6,000ish years, not a day more. There is more than one concept of intelligent design out there, and the minute you allow one in the schools, you have to allow them all.
