		<description><![CDATA[Shannon -

No, the Theory of Evolution hasn&#039;t been proved 100%.  However, in 150 years, the ToE hasn&#039;t yet been proven false, not even once.  That&#039;s the important part!

Theories aren&#039;t about &#039;proving things 100%&#039;.  Theories are about testing the evidence you have, and if any test falsifies your theory, you change or dump your theory until you can&#039;t find any test that falsifies it.  THAT we&#039;ve done with the Theory of Evolution. In 150 years of testing, no one yet has managed to find the test that shows the falsity of the theory.

Just as importantly, ID hasn&#039;t got ANY scientific evidence in its favor.  Not one peer-reviewed article, not one reproducable experiment, and most especially, not one single prediction that can be made by ID &#039;theory&#039; and not by evolution theory.

All of this argument is happening in school boards and in books released to the general public, and NONE of it is being done in laboratories, universities,  or in peer-reviewed science publications.  Why?  Why are the ID people unable to show ANY science to back up their &#039;theory&#039;?

No, the ToE hasn&#039;t been &#039;proved 100%&#039;, but neither have Germ Theory, Gravitational Theory, Electromagnetic Theory, Plate Tectonics Theory, etc.  NO theory has every been &#039;proved 100%&#039;.   But it&#039;s stood up to 150 years of scientists from all over the world trying to prove it wrong, and none of them have been able to.

Meanwhile, ID has NOTHING.  ID hasn&#039;t got even 1%, much less 100%!  All ID has is &#039;Dang, that looks complimicated!  I don&#039;t understand how it could be!&#039;  Lack of understanding on your part doesn&#039;t put the ToE in jeopardy, it just shows your ignorance.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The whole point of the film was to make the public aware that the &quot;powers that be&quot; in our colleges and universities are not always allowing the debate in their classrooms.
That is what is concerning. Not who is right or who is wrong.
Both ID and evolution are theories. Neither has been proven 100%. We must continue to debate these things. This is America, land of the free!]]></description>
