Proponents of “Intelligent Design” insist that institutions of higher learning should permit, but not require, scientists and philosophers to develop hypotheses of divine origins for mankind. They argue that the concept of Intelligent Design implies nothing about beliefs, and only implies that “life had an intelligent source.” Basing your answer on the readings and course material, do you think Intelligent Design should be taught as legitimate course of study? Why or why not? Finally, why do you think a significant portion of the U.S. population today still doubts evolution, despite all of the evidence?
