KMA-628, absolutely. I think they both are valuable and meritorious views. I'm interested in a pluralistic solution as well.

I don't want to get into a debate about sources here - or even "evidence". My point in quoting that piece was that there is something worth at least researching regarding ID before one just does a knee-jerk dismissal of the subject. And that's what is bothering me about all this. There is a trend toward simply dismissing - as pure lunacy - anything that can be associated with religious thought. This is more narrow-minded and antithetical to respectful discourse than a lot of what we consider as such when discussing many other groups of people and/or philosophical positions. I'm not going to just sit by and watch this poor trend continue.
