Here is a great article from the July 2002 edition of Scientific American: 15 Answers to Creationist Nonsense.
The article contains 15 great answers to typical points that creationists use to attack the theory of evolution. There are also some good links to additional resources at the end, such as Skeptic Magazine. I might have to actually get a subscription of this, as it seems pretty interesting. The Skeptic Library also contains a lot of great content, such as essays debunking ID and similar topics.
I am generally not a very political person, and while I am a strongly convinced atheist, I don’t have a problem with religion and (non-fundamentalist) religious people, but for some reason this whole Intelligent Design nonsense has struck a chord with me… Faith is one thing, but dressing it up as science is just absurd and not something one should expect from an industrial nation like the US. The thought of my kids having to learn unscientific nonsense like Intelligent Design at schools that are paid for with my tax dollars makes me shiver. Luckily I live in California and not in Kansas or some other state in the Midwest, but still…
Living in the UK Im very happy that this sort of fundamentalism has not (yet) seeped into our polital system. The US right-wing trying to force ID into science classes has been reported on and argued against in New Scientist magazine here. Ifeel that it cannot be justified in any way. Im not against the US teaching ID, but keep it in its right place – the Religous Education lessons (I assume that US schools have an RE class that is compulory, if not then it may go some way to explaining the religious intolerance seen frequently). ID can even be explained as a theory that is incompatable to evolution, but it should be done in the RE class.
