Actually, I would say that ID proponents do try to say "how" it happens, by claiming that a supernatural designer has a hand in things and by claiming that "irreducible complexity" is a legitimate concept. - Resident Mon, 13 Jun 2011 11:04:13 +0100 http://www.theind.com/re/8406-unnatural-selection#comment-18553 Soop -- Excellent comment. - ragin_cajun Thu, 09 Jun 2011 08:30:39 +0100 http://www.theind.com/re/8406-unnatural-selection#comment-18443 I think most people realize the debate over evolution vs. intelligent design is arguing over apples and oranges. One speaks to how and the other speaks to why. I've never thought those two terms were mutually exclusive. This is really a non-issue but when one side feels it needs to rile up the other, up comes the E/ID debate. And the LSEA is not why LA schools are underperforming. But the fact that some people THINK that is the reason probably has more to do with the overall problem than anything else, ie ... the more we argue about LSEA is the more we ignore the real underlying problems. All the best, Soop - Soop.

Great piece. Louisiana is a third-world country when it comes to education, disease prevention, literacy, gay rights, pollution, political corruption, and so much more. Maybe we can all take a break from patting ourselves on the back about the "uniqueness" of Louisiana to open our eyes and see how backwards this place is. - Colin Miller Wed, 01 Jun 2011 12:23:51 +0100
