The New Word for It: Anti-Evolution Missouri Bill Requires College Students to Learn About 'Destiny'

A lot to consider, but hey, the Bill is too all-conclusive to pass ‘as is’. IOW, this bill, while rightly allowing for ID as an adjunctive hypothesis within evolutionary theory rather than in opposition to it, does need to tone down any portions that overly presume ID as (1) the only causality, and (2) as operating ex nihilo, rather than step-by-step, as the current data tends to support. ID, properly defined, is a valid science based hypothesis, which may or may not have validity.

Lastly, why have Bills such as this befallen society ad infinitum? To bring about a Theocracy? BS. Or to allow teaching religion within science curricula? Not a chance, given Constitutional constraints. It’s for a more unobstructed rather than a severely constrained science, bro.
