Fair enough. Is it also good pedagogy to tell students in biology class, some scientists argue that there is no intelligent designer?
A. I think it would be good pedagogy to point out that, in fact, the majority view of science is that random mutation and natural selection without any apparent design is responsible for what we find in biology. Q. And included in that statement, it would be good pedagogy to tell students, those scientists contend there is no intelligent designer? Is that good pedagogy, to tell students that scientists think there is no intelligent designer? A. No, it would not be good pedagogy, because there are many different ideas tangled together in your statement. Many scientists who think that, for example, Darwinian processes are correct, nonetheless do think that there is a designer in a different sense. One is using the word designer here in several different senses; designer of laws of nature versus designer of specific aspects of nature, and so on. So I think your question is a bit ambiguous.
