The Evolution Debate- Intelligent Design

Intelligent Design(ID) is an anti- evolution theory. The theory says that living beings are so complex that they didn't simply evolve but a higher intelligence has palyed a crucial role.

A number of US school boards have endorsed the intelligent design and through biology it is offered as an alternative to evolution. This theory is strongly supported by the conservative christians in the United States. Some parents are objecting to ID being thought to their children in public schools. The US constitution provides for the separation of religion and and state and it has worked very well for them. This attempt to introduce Intelligent Design to public schools will blur that line and a raging debate has started beween scientists , theologians and well meaning citizens.
