*****************************************************************************

I remember very clearly being taught about spontaneous generation and 
the Lamarckian theory of evolution in my junior high and high school 
science classes.

What would people think of the idea of including Intelligent Design in 
that context? Is it still inappropriate, because those other theories, 
though incorrect, were at least attempts at a scientific explanation, 
while ID is not? Or would this provide educators with a good opportunity 
to explain why ID does not hold up as science, just as those other 
theories did not hold up?
