| it's properly called
the intelligent design theory,
creationism is a disparaging term.
i see nothing wrong with admitting that intelligent design of life forms is possibility,
as long as it's kept general and not tied into
any specific religion's creation myth.
the constitution states that the government must not establish religion or give religious preference,
but the notion of intelligent design is not restricted to any religion nor does one even need to be religious to consider the possibility that life on earth might have been 'created' by some intelligence, which might not even be 'god'
but could have been some ET species billions of years ago.
rigid insistance that only blind random mutations explain changes in lifeforms over time
is not real science as it cannot be proven.
real science should examine all the possibilities, which includes intelligent design.
