I agree completely. The ID "movement" seems to be more centered on discrediting evolution than it it on increasing the knowledge of students.

Evolution describes HOW.. and ID explains WHY.

ID can, in the view of present knowledge, only possibly explain WHY.. but if i want to know HOW life originated i prefer to look to science and reason.. And i don't understand why those who believe in ID shouldn't do the same. Evolution does not deny ID. It just denies biblical explanations to the creation of life.
