Intelligent Design

I spent most of my formative years getting my education in a Catholic school. Of course, we were taught the normal evolution explanations, however some way or another God was always involved in it somehow. (Yeah, I still don't understand that) I am, however, fortunate that I was taught both evolution and creationism. Now why creationism and intelligent design are not the same, I feel I benefited from having both in the curriculum. Our education is supposed to be as complete as possible. By not including intelligent design I feel we are in some ways being cheated. I don't understand what the big deal about teaching intelligent design is. It is not saying that God made the world in seven days and things like this. There is no issue with separation of church and state because intelligent design doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the church. By being exposed to both theories of evolution and intelligent design, we as students would have a more thorough education as well as being given the option of which theory we agree with. The fact is, most of my science teachers, even in public high school, have had a Christian background and believe in theories closer to creationism or intelligent design, however as long as their beliefs don't get in the way of unbiased teaching, I see no problem with the teaching of intelligent design.
