Intelligent Design

President Bush has said that he defends free speech and supports the right of students to hear about different scientific views about evolution. Good for you Mr. Bush.

Just what is Intelligent Design? It is the view that nature shows signs of having been designed by preexisting intelligence. Unlike Darwin's Theory which says all life descended from a single ancestor, Intelligent Design attributes life to a supreme creator.

President Bush said that students ought to be able to hear both theories so they can better understand the debate. He is absolutely right; we need to study both. Perhaps some day we will come back to prayer in school and the Pledge of Allegiance.

Your comments are welcome.
