KTVB reports that members of the Idaho Science Teachers Association have approved an official position against teaching intelligent design in Idaho's public schools.
Rick Alm is the president of the ISTA's board and a science teacher at Bonneville High School.
He says teachers in public schools are charged with teaching methodology that's been approved by the scientific community.
Steve Renner, in the American Chronicle, writes that "Darwinists are famous for using the blanket statement that intelligent design is the result of 'blind faith.' It's easy to write that, but is it true?"
Jerry Bergman, of Northwest State College, will be speaking on Wednesday, February 28th, At Undiana University Purdue University at Fort Wayne. The talk begins at 5:30 p.m. and will be on the advantages of ID in doing science. He will be presenting several case histories.
The talk will take place in the Medical Bldg., Room 134.
In a series of lectures beginning Thursday, March 1, Duke University Professor Alexander Rosenberg will argue that Charles Darwin's theories best explain human behavior, culture and morality.
See if you can find holes in his premises and conclusions.
In a thought-provoking paper from the March issue of The Quarterly Review of Biology , Elliott Sober (University of Wisconsin) clearly discusses the problems with two standard criticisms of intelligent design: that it is unfalsifiable and that the many imperfect adaptations found in nature refute the hypothesis of intelligent design.

Evolution has become a favorite topic of the news media recently, but for some reason, they never seem to get the story straight. The staff at Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture started this Blog to set the record straight and make sure you knew "the rest of the story".
A blogger from New England offers his intelligent reasoning.
We are a group of individuals, coming from diverse backgrounds and not speaking for any organization, who have found common ground around teleological concepts, including intelligent design. We think these concepts have real potential to generate insights about our reality that are being drowned out by political advocacy from both sides. We hope this blog will provide a small voice that helps rectify this situation.

Intelligent Design The Future is a multiple contributor weblog whose participants include the nation's leading design scientists and theorists: biochemist Michael Behe, mathematician William Dembski, astronomer Guillermo Gonzalez, philosophers of science Stephen Meyer, and Jay Richards, philosopher of biology Paul Nelson, molecular biologist Jonathan Wells, and science writer Jonathan Witt. Posts will focus primarily on the intellectual issues at stake in the debate over intelligent design, rather than its implications for education or public policy.
