smooth wombat's Journal: Univ of Kansas course to study Intelligent Design

CNN has an article which is certain to reignite the simmering debate about whether Intelligent Design (ID) is science or religious-based. From the article:

Creationism and intelligent design are going to be studied at the University of Kansas, but not in the way advocated by opponents of the theory of evolution.

A course being offered next semester by the university religious studies department is titled "Special Topics in Religion: Intelligent Design, Creationism and other Religious Mythologies."

Mirecki said his course, limited to 120 students, would explore intelligent design as a modern American mythology. Several faculty members have volunteered to be guest lecturers, he said.

Completely off-topic, but found these two links in the sidebar of that article:

Posted that in the wrong JE entirely. I’m sorry; I suck.

Perhaps I should just be working instead...
