Here's what kills me. Its not intelligent design vs. evolution. I say give them ID. All ID "proves" is that evolution is by design. ID serves no useful purpose.
ID is like that comic with the two mathematicians at a chalkboard:

Rumor has it that Pat Tillman was taken out by one of our own because he was "rude" to those praying in the field. He also thought the invasion of Iraq was "fucking illegal". Either way, he was indeed taken out by by US troops.

Thomas Jefferson to the rescue, again.
"Shake off all the fears and servile prejudices under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear." --Thomas Jefferson to Peter Carr, 1787. ME 6:258 Papers 12:15
"[When] the [Virginia] bill for establishing religious freedom... was finally passed,... a singular proposition proved that its protection of opinion was meant to be universal. Where the preamble declares that coercion is a departure from the plan of the holy author of our religion, an amendment was proposed, by inserting the word "Jesus Christ," so that it should read "a departure from the plan of Jesus Christ, the holy author of our religion." The insertion was rejected by a great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend within the mantle of its protection the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and Mahometan, the Hindoo and infidel of every denomination." --Thomas Jefferson: Autobiography, 1821. ME 1:67

I second what Tack said. I recently heard, if I remember correctly, that Dawkins thinks science can prove God does not exist. Haven't had a chance to research this, but for now, I tend to disagree.

While Thomas Jefferson did believe in a God, he was merely a Deist. I believe he hit the nail on the head with these words. Notice how they still apply to those in the video.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to W. Short, 1820:
"[Of Jesus] Among the sayings and discourses imputed to him by his biographers, I find many passages of fine imagination, correct morality, and of the the most lovely benevolence, and others, again of so much ignorance, so much absurdity, so much untruth, charlatanism and imposture, as to pronounce it impossible that such contradictions should have proceeded from the same being. I separate, therefore, the dross; restore to him the former and leave the latter to the stupidity of some, the roguery of others of his disciples. Of this band of dupes and impostors, Paul was the great Coryphaeus and first corruptor of the doctrines of Jesus."
