Should Intelligent Design be taught in schools?

In: Education

Answer:

No, it should not, since it is not scientific fact, unless it is taught in a comparative religion class along with other myths.

In the US the Supreme Court has ruled that ID is not science, and it cannot be legally taught in public schools.
