Originally posted by LemonJelloI think its interesting how most Intelligent Design proponents argue that macroevolution has never been observed and thus insist that evolution is not a valid theory. Has it ever occured to creationists and Intelligent design theorists that none of their theories have been observed either?

EDIT: I should add that marcoevolution does not need to be observed anyway. But I guess creationism does.

Can anyone give me a valid basis for the teaching of creationism/ID in a [b]science classroom?
