I'm actually very interested in knowing HOW the ID supporters intend that this "theory" should be taught in schools.

Don't get me wrong, i actually wholeheartedly believe in Intelligent Design ( only i think it came about through evolution), but i don't know how you can possibly TEACH this theory without assumptions and pre-suppositions that are essentially SUBJECTIVE.

How can you teach ID without teaching christianity (or whichever other religion). How can you teach ID without giving proof, references, experiments, historical texts etc etc etc? How can you teach ID without a standardized curriculum. WHO will develop this standardized curriculum (if it ever gets that far)?

Lastly, will ID be a subject in which any developments can be made? Is there any research in this that is not theological? Is it a "completed" subject, or is it (Like ALL OTHER SUBJECTS) still being researched, improved, amended and adjusted to new knowledge?
